  Abstract

Wireless Sensor Networks(WSN) make use of low cost and energy constrained sensor nodes. Thus, reaching the successful execution of its tasks with low energy consumption is one of the most important issues. The limitation of existing hierarchical algorithms is that many times the data are transmitted to the opposite direction to the sink. In this paper, DDACM (Data Direction Aware Clustering Method) is proposed. In this method, the nearest node to the sink is elected as cluster head, and when its energy level reaches a threshold value, the cluster head is reelected. We also make a comparison with LEACH showing how this method can reduce the energy consumption minimizing the reverse direction data transmission.
