Özet
In this paper, a genetic algorithm based method (GABEEC) is proposed to optimize the lifetime of wireless sensor networks. The proposed method is a cluster based approach like LEACH. Genetic algorithm is used to maximize the lifetime of the network by means of rounds. The method has 2 phases which are Set-up and Steady-state phase. In the set-up phase, the clusters are created and are not changed throughout the network. The clusters are not recreated for each round. In each round, there are static clusters with dynamically changing clusterheads. A simulator is developed in MS Visual C# 2010 development environment to validate the proposed method. In the simulation, 100 nodes are randomly distributed in 50×50 square meters area. The results show that the proposed method is found to be more efficient than LEACH. © 2012 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
