Clustering methods are potentially the framework for power-conserving wireless sensor networks. These methods are among the most effective approaches aiming for prolonging the lifetime. Power-limited nature of the employed ...

Nowadays, one of the attractive topics in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) is Estimation. In WSN, sensor nodes collect locally processed data and then send them to a Fusion Center (FC). The FC collects data to produce a final ...

In this paper, two clustering algorithms are proposed. In the first one, we

investigate a clustering protocol for single hop wireless sensor networks that employs a

competitive scheme for cluster head selection. The proposed algorithm...
