Abstract: The design of low-power scalable wireless sensor networks remains a key challenge of the research. Clustering and routing have been widely studied for extending the lifetime of a network, which is a critical issue in sensor networks. Routing involves non-negligible operations, which considerably affect the network lifetime and the throughput. The clustering technique with data aggregation on cluster heads has an influence on the overall performance of the network since it is favoring a maximum network lifetime. This paper presents a novel clust...
