A Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) comprises of little, low-power sensors, which have a low battery limit and are often utilized in unfavorable conditions. These sensors are data processing and networking devices. The battery life, processing power, communication range, and memory of sensors, which are tiny, self-contained devices, are just a few of their limits. They also have transceivers, which gather environmental data and transmit it to a base station. There are various strategies accessible to expand the existence of a WSN and diminish energy utilization. LEACH (Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy) is a successful and widely used method. The protocol clusters the network in order to conserve energy The cluster head, which is a single-region indicative node, receives fusion cluster data once the sensor nodes are divided into clusters. In our study, we provide a novel method for reducing sensor node energy consumption and extending network lifetime. Our research aims to increase network lifespan by reducing energy consumption based on the restrictions of the LEACH and its related algorithms. © by the authors.
