New Clustering Protocol to Decrease Probability Failure Nodes and Increasing the Lifetime in WSNs

Clustering in wireless sensor networks is one of the crucial methods for increasing of network lifetime. There are many algorithms in for clustering. LEACH algorithm is one of the important clusters based in wireless sensor network. In this paper we proposed a new clustering method for increasing of network lifetime. In this we distribute several sensors with a high-energy for managing the cluster heads and decrease their responsibilities in network. These sensors are used as a gateway between head cluster and base station. The simulation results shows, new clustering protocol decrease probability of failure nodes and increasing lifetime in WSNs.
