Abstract

In Wireless sensor network (WSN), sensor nodes are usually deployed in the remote dense environment with limited energy resources in order to monitor a region for a long time. It makes energy conservation as most challenging issue for design and deployment of wireless sensor networks. In the energy conversation solutions, most of the researches have been conducted on energy efficient solutions regardless of the intra-cluster and inter-cluster short distance energy efficient communication. Transmission distance is proportional to energy cost. So, energy cost can be reduced by shortening the communication distance between the nodes. To reduce the intra-cluster and inter-cluster transmission distance, a novel Zonal based Energy Efficient Routing Protocol (ZEEP) for Heterogeneous WSN has been proposed in order to enhance the stability period and lifetime of the network. The simulation results indicate that proposed scheme enhanced the stability period, network lifetime and throughput than existing routing protocols.
