The Role of Nodes Distribution in Extending the Lifetime of Wireless Sensor Networks

One of the most important issues in sensor networks is prolonging the network lifetime. In this paper, we demonstrate that given a constant number of nodes, how distribution of nodes affects the lifetime. For this purpose, we first show that in a network with cluster-based routing protocol, nodes do...
