DCPVP: Distributed Clustering Protocol Using Voting and Priority for Wireless Sensor Networks

This paper presents a new clustering protocol for designing energy-efficient hierarchical wireless sensor networks (WSNs) by dividing the distributed sensor network into virtual sensor groups to satisfy the scalability and prolong the network lifetime in large-scale applications. The proposed approa...
