Raju Dutta, Shishir Gupta, Debraj Paul . The Simulation and Analysis of Modified LEACH Protocol using TOSSIM in Wireless Sensor Networks. International Journal of Computer Applications. 82, 5 ( November 2013), 13-17. DOI=10.5120/14111-2150
The most important routing protocol LEACH of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) has been incorporated by W. Heinzelman. LEACH uses the concept of dynamic clustering when sensor nodes are deploying randomly where number of cluster impact on the network. This paper describes the network quality that depends on the optimum selection of number of clusterhead as a Modification on LEACH protocol using new operating system TOSSIM. In this paper we discussed and explain the comparison of data packet broadcasting, energy consumption and dead node of LEACH and Modified LEACH respectively. Simulation result shows Modified LEACH performs better than LEACH for extending overall network performances.
