Protocol Enhancements in LEACH
Keywords: LEACH, E-LEACH, Enhanced LEACH, EHE-LEACH, Multi-level Leach
LEACH is a hierarchical protocol in which most nodes transmit to cluster heads, and the cluster heads aggregate and compress the data and forward it to the base station (sink).In LEACH, a TDMA-based MAC protocol is integrated with clustering and a simple “routing” protocol. The goal of LEACH is to lower the energy consumption required to create and maintain clusters or to use the energy of the nodes in such a manner so as to improve the life time of a wireless sensor network. In this paper we are presenting an overview of the different protocol changes made in LEACH to improve network lifetime, throughput, coverage area of network etc.
