The Implementation of Multi-Local LEACH Routing Algorithm Based on Wireless Sensor Networks

These LEACH is a widespread protocol in wireless senor networks to reduce the energy dissipation of wireless sensor system. However, through our analysis, we found there are still some limitations in this protocol. In this paper, we propose a revised LEACH algorithm called Multi-Local LEACH to address these problems, which incorporates multi-hop and internal rotation mechanism to the convention LEACH. We establish the simulation platform in a virtual wireless environment by matlab and simulate the operations of the two protocols. The result of experiments shows that Multi-Local LEACH can significantly extending the network lifetime and be superior in energy saving compared with conventional LEACH.
