Energy-Aware MAX-LEACH Routing Protocol for Homogeneous and Heterogeneous WSNs

The Energy-Efficient wireless sensor network is needed in the present-day Scenario. The main problem in the area of WSN is energy consumption or low battery power. In such a case the best routing protocols are required to reduce the energy consumption and to improve the network lifetime. This paper is focused on how to minimize the nodes' energy depletion and then how to rise the network lifetime by efficient routing protocols in the WSN. In this paper, we have proposed an Energy-Aware Routing protocol for Homogeneous and Heterogeneous WSNs called MAX LEACH. The proposed protocol improves the total network lifetime. The proposed protocol is simulated using MATLAB and observed that the network lifetime was improved when compared to existing Homogeneous and Heterogeneous protocols. Various parameters like alive nodes, dead nodes, throughput, residual energy, and packet transmission from nodes to the sink are also compared.
