Wireless sensor network (WSN) hierarchical (clustering) routing involves the gathering of sensor nodes to form clusters in which sensor node communicates to cluster head (CH). The CH is responsible for data aggregation and forwarding collected data toward base station (BS). Energy expenditure in usual protocols becomes unequal because of clusters having diverse lengths. In this paper, we propose another new enhanced clustering protocol called adaptive threshold residual energy-based efficient sensor network protocol (ATREEN) for adaptive selection of CH in WSNs. In ATREEN, CHs are chosen by comparing threshold of node value with respect to distance between cluster member and CH, residual energy of sensor nodes, and position of sensor node with respect to BS. Simulation results show that ATREEN protocol extends network lifetime and stability with decline in energy dissipation compared to clustering protocols such as low-energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH), power-efficient gathering in sensor information systems (PEGASIS), and distributed energy-efficient clustering (DEEC) scheme for heterogeneous WSNs.
