Distributed Power Allocation for Sink-Centric Clusters in Multiple Sink Wireless Sensor Networks

Due to the battery resource constraints, saving energy is a critical issue in wireless sensor networks, particularly in large sensor networks. One possible solution is to deploy multiple sink nodes simultaneously. Another possible solution is to employ an adaptive clustering hierarchy routing scheme...
