Clustering Routing Algorithm Based on Wireless Sensor

In the clustering routing algorithm of wireless sensor networks, how to select the appropriate cluster head is the key to affect the network life cycle. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a Game-oriented Clustering Routing Algorithm (GCRA). The GCRA algorithm divides the network area according to the optimal number of cluster heads, and each area adopts a mixed strategy game model to select cluster heads. Furthermore, that energy consumption of the network is balanced through a probability return to zero mechanism. The simulation results show that compared with LEACH and CROSS, GCRA can effectively reduce the network energy consumption and prolong the network lifetime.
