Abstract

In this paper, a new routing protocol for heterogeneous networks with improved clustering strategies has been developed. Energy Efficient Stable Election Protocol(EE-SEP) is proposed which has the impact on network lifetime, network stability and cluster heads formation in every round. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm outperformed SEP and Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH) in all the factors considered when two different topologies with advanced nodes and their energies taken into consideration.
