  • Abstract
    Clustering algorithms play an important role in design and deployment of in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). We apply here a general clustering algorithm namely FFUCA (Fast and Flexible Unsupervised Clustering Algorithm) on WSNs. This application shows that FFUCA provides rapidly a strong organizational structure of nodes. We compare its built structures with those of the common algorithm LEACH to validate our approach. We aim to provide an optimal structure regarding energy consumption but with a low computational complexity.
