TU Dresden, 23/01/2007 LEACH – Architecture LEACH9

TU Dresden, 23/01/2007 Phase Life of Leach Protocol Each Leach operation round consists of  Set-up phase (clusters are organized).  Cluster Head Selection.  Cluster Formation.  Steady state Phase (data transmission). Timeline showing LEACH operation [6] LEACH10

Setup phase  At the beginning of each round, each node advertises it probability, (depending upon its current energy level) to be the Cluster Head, to all other nodes.  Nodes (k for each round) with higher probabilities are chosen as the Cluster Heads.  Cluster Heads broadcasts an advertisement message (ADV) using CSMA MAC protocol.  Based on the received signal strength, each non-Cluster Head node determines its Cluster Head for this round (random selection with obstacle).  Each non-Cluster Head transmits a join-request message (Join-REQ) back to its chosen Cluster Head using a CSMA MAC protocol.  Cluster Head node sets up a TDMA schedule for data transmission coordination within the cluster. TU Dresden, 23/01/2007LEACH11

Cluster Head Selection Algorithm[6] P i (t) is the probability with which node i elects itself to be Cluster Head at the beginning of the round r+1 (which starts at time t) such that expected number of cluster-head nodes for this round is k. (1) k = number of clusters during each round. N = number of nodes in the network. TU Dresden, 23/01/2007LEACH13

Cluster Head Selection Algorithm [6]  Each node will be Cluster Head once in N/k rounds.  Probability for each node i to be a cluster-head at time t (2) C i (t) = it determines whether node i has been a Cluster Head in most recent (r mod(N/k)) rounds. TU Dresden, 23/01/2007LEACH14

Cluster Head Selection Algorithm[6] (3) = total no. of nodes eligible to be a cluster-head at time t. This ensures energy at each node to be approx. equal after every N/k rounds. Using (2) and (3), expected no of Cluster Heads per round is, (4) TU Dresden, 23/01/2007LEACH15

Cluster Formation Algorithm [2]  Cluster Heads broadcasts an advertisement message (ADV) using CSMA MAC protocol.  ADV = node’s ID + distinguishable header.  Based on the received signal strength of ADV message, each non-Cluster Head node determines its Cluster Head for this round (random selection with obstacle).  Each non-Cluster Head transmits a join-request message (Join-REQ) back to its chosen Cluster Head using a CSMA MAC protocol.  Join-REQ = node’s ID + cluster-head ID + header.  Cluster Head node sets up a TDMA schedule for data transmission coordination within the cluster.  TDMA Schedule  Prevents collision among data messages.  Energy conservation in non cluster-head nodes. TU Dresden, 23/01/2007LEACH16

Dynamic Cluster Formation TU Dresden, 23/01/2007 Clusters at time tClusters at time t+d LEACH17

TU Dresden, 23/01/2007  TDMA schedule is used to send data from node to head cluster.  Head Cluster aggregates the data received from node cluster’s.  Communication is via direct-sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) and each cluster uses a unique spreading code to reduce inter-cluster interference.  Data is sent from the cluster head nodes to the BS using a fixed spreading code and CSMA. Steady-State Phase Timeline showing LEACH operation [6] LEACH18

TU Dresden, 23/01/2007  Assumptions  Nodes are all time synchronized and start the setup phase at same time.  BS sends out synchronized pulses to the nodes.  Cluster Head must be awake all the time.  To reduce inter-cluster interference, each cluster in LEACH communicates using direct-sequence spread spectrum (DSSS).  Data is sent from the cluster head nodes to the BS using a fixed spreading code and CSMA. Steady-State Phase Timeline showing LEACH operation [6] LEACH19

Flow Chart for Steady Phase[6] TU Dresden, 23/01/2007LEACH20

Sensor Data Aggregation  Data aggregation is performed on all the uncompressed data at cluster head.  Performing local data aggregation requires less energy than sending all the unprocessed data to the BS. »L:1 data compression. »E DA : energy dissipation per bit for data aggregation. »E TX : energy dissipation per bit to transmit to BS. TU Dresden, 23/01/2007LEACH21

Sensor Data Aggregation [6]  L = 20, BS is 100m away, cost of commn. to BS = 1.05 X J /bit.  Result: when energy to perform DA < 1.05 X J, total energy dissipation of the system is less using data aggregation. TU Dresden, 23/01/2007LEACH22

LEACH-C: BS Cluster Formation  LEACH doesn’t guarantee cluster head spread in the network.  Centralized clustering algorithm for cluster formation.  Uniform distribution of Cluster Heads through out the network.  Uses same steady-state protocol as LEACH.  Set-up phase  Each node specifies its location(using GPS) and energy level to the BS.  BS runs an optimization algorithm to determine the cluster’s for that round.  BS determines optimal clusters and broadcasts a message containing cluster head ID for each node. TU Dresden, 23/01/2007LEACH23

LEACH-F: Fixed Cluster, Rotating Cluster Head  Clusters are formed once using centralized cluster formation algorithm(LEACH-C) and are fixed.  Cluster Head position rotates among the nodes in the cluster.  BS determines optimal clusters and broadcasts a message containing cluster head ID for each node.  First node listed in the cluster becomes Cluster Head for first round.  Steady-state protocol is identical to LEACH protocol.  Advantage: No setup overhead at the beginning of each round.  Disadvantages  Requires more transmit power from nodes.  Increases energy dissipation of non CH node and inter-cluster interference.  Not practical for dynamic system.  Doesn’t handle node mobility.

Questions & Comments TU Dresden, 23/01/2007LEACH36

Optimal percentage of cluster heads  If number of cluster-heads is less than k, some nodes have to transmit very far to reach the cluster head, large global energy.  If number of cluster-heads is more than k, distance does not reduce substantially, more cluster heads have to transmit the long haul distances to the base station, hence compression is less.
