"Dynamic Energy-Aware Cluster Head Rotation and Range Optimization Protocol"

Abstract

Using a novel cross-layer architecture, the "Dynamic Energy-Aware Cluster Head Rotation and Range Optimization Protocol (DEACH-ROP)" offers a ground-breaking method to enhance the capabilities of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). By introducing a dynamic and adaptive framework, this protocol efficiently maximizes energy efficiency and extends the network's operational lifespan by optimizing both cluster head rotation and communication range. Neighbor finding, adaptive cluster creation, and data transmission optimization are among the main features of DEACH-ROP. By utilizing cross-layer design principles, DEACH-ROP balances energy usage by optimizing communication ranges and dynamically adjusting cluster head rotations in response to real-time network conditions. As demonstrated by extensive simulations and studies, DEACH-ROP routinely beats current protocols, demonstrating its ability to strike the best possible balance between energy efficiency and network lifetime. This protocol not only extends the operational life of WSNs but also exemplifies adaptive and energy-conscious management of cluster heads and communication ranges through its cross-layer design
