Abstract
In this paper, we propose two clustering schemes to prolong lifetime by improving unbalance of energy consumption among sensor nodes in wireless sensor networks. The first proposed scheme make up clusters according to density of sensor nodes in initial stage of wireless sensor networks for reducing energy consumption of wireless sensor networks. After the initial stage, a cluster header is selected by a relay scheme that determines a cluster header of next round among cluster members. by estimating of energy consumption of cluster members for improving unbalance of energy consumption among cluster members.
