Abstract :
This paper considers a cluster-based WSNs, which is partitioned into a number of voronoi cells. For a voronoi cell, the paper presents an energy-balance transmission approach to balance the energy dissipation, by adjusting the ratio of data transmitted to the next hop and the cluster head directly. Simulations show that the network lifetime by this transmission approach extends about 1.5 times of that in single hop mode and 6.5 times of that in multi-hop mode.
