Abstract
This paper proposes a novel centralized clustering algorithm, "RLCA : Relative Location based Clustering Algorithm for Wireless Sensor Networks," for constructing geographically well-distributed clusters in general WSNs. RLCA does not use GPS and controls selection-rate of cluster-head based on distances between sensors and BS. We empirically show that RLCA's energy efficiency is higher than LEACH's.
