무선 센서 네트워크(Wireless Sensor Network : WSN)는 저가의 소형 센서를 활용해서 무선으로 사용되기 때문에 제한된 배터리 전력을 가지고 있다. 배터리를 교체할 수 없으므로 센서 노드의 수명은 배터리의 수명과 직결되므로 전력을 효율적으로 사용하여 네트워크의 수명을 극대화해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 대표적인 에너지 효율적 라우팅 프로토콜인 PEGASIS(: Power-Efficient Gathering in Sensor Information System)를 기반으로 싱크 노드로부터의 거리에 따라 계층화하여 하나의 체인이 아닌 다중 체인을 구성하는 프로토콜을 제안한다. 제안하는 프로토콜은 노드 간 전송 거리를 줄여서 불필요한 에너지 소모를 막아 네트워크 수명을 높일 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Wireless sensor network(WSN) is being used in various fields such as reconnaissance, echelon scale identification, weather observation, etc. using small sensors in an environment without a network infrastructure environment. In addition, WSN uses limited battery power, so study on routing protocols to extend the lifetime of the network is important. PEGASIS, a hierarchical routing protocol, accounts for the majority of energy-efficient routing protocol studies and is well known as a representative protocol. In this study, based on PEGASIS, we propose a protocol that constructs multiple chains rather than one chain using the AoA of nodes. The proposed protocol has the advantage of reducing the transmission distance of nodes and eliminating unnecessary transmissions, thereby increasing energy efficiency compared to the existing protocols.

Wireless sensor network (WSN) can be usefully used in battlefields requiring rapid installation and operation by enabling surveillance and reconnaissance using small sensors in areas where any existing network infrastructure is not formed. As WSN uses battery, energy efficiency acts as a very important issue in network survivability. Layer-based routing protocols have been studied a lot in the aspect of energy efficiency. Many research selected LEACH and PEGASIS protocols as their comparison targets. This study examines the two protocols and LECEEP, a protocol designed by combining their advantages, and proposes a new protocol, A-LECEEP, which is more energy efficient than the others. The proposed protocol can increase energy efficiency compared to the existing ones by eliminating unnecessary transmissions with multiple chains configuration.
