A Dynamic Solar LEACH protocol: A Brief Approach to Improving an Energy Efficient LEACH Routing Protocol.

A wireless network is made up of multiple sensors that participate in data communication inside a cluster framework. In order to extend the longevity of a sensor-based wireless network, it is necessary to design an energy-efficient routing protocol. Among the several routing protocols that are now available, one remarkable solution is the Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH) protocol. It is a cluster-oriented routing system that comes in several variants. In order to create a LEACH approach that is more energy efficient, a new LEACH protocol will be proposed together with the workflow of its routing activity and cluster head development. Features of the proposed model: 1. Solar energy as backup power source of the cluster. 2. Adaptive sleep-active-duty cycle of the cluster nodes. 3. Constant performance measurement for a specific threshold level of energy for the nodes and the management for its efficient failure handling. 4. Centralized control from the Base Station to the sensor nodes.
