distributed and dedicated autonomous nodes with limited resource which monitors
the physical and environmental conditions. Though sensor nodes of WSN have confinements
in memory, energy and computations, it has been widely used in numerous real
time applications at present scenario for sensing the environment. Clustering
of dispatch nodes and data ensemble technique affords energy conservation and
resource utilization. Aggregating the data sent by the cluster members comprehend
in draining network load and amending the bandwidth. In order to minimize the
energy dissipation of sensor nodes and optimize the resource utilization, cluster
head is elected for each cluster. The cluster heads contribute for adequate
communication with the base station. Active Clustering Rule for LEACH model
(ACR-LEACH) endeavors on the cluster formation and cluster head selection, contemplating
the factors such as energy, concentration and centrality. The approach paves
a way for increasing the lifetime of the network by adept cluster head selection
schema. The primal authority algorithm called base station control algorithm
elects the optimal cluster-heads that acquaintance with the base station. The
proposed methodology is an immense method of cluster head selection on the resource
constraint network.]]>Chengfa, L., Y. Mao, C. Guihai and W. Jie,20052005pp: 599604Hesong, H. and W. Jie,20052005pp: 17961798Gupta, G. and M. Younis,20032003pp: 15791584Gupta, I., D. Riordan and S.
