Employing Orphan Nodes to Avoid Energy Holes in Wireless Sensor Networks
2013
Communications and Network
When energy consumption by wireless sensor nodes gets off balance, partitions in the network appear because several of the nodes stop functioning. The respective network's lifetime also diminishes. This problem is commonly known as the "hot spot" or "energy hole" phenomenon. To resolve this issue, a Multi-Hop Decentralized Cluster-Based Routing (MDCR) protocol is proposed. This algorithm uses orphan nodes as intermediate nodes to form inter-cluster multi-hop routing and balance the energy
