Abstract
Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) applications are expanding every day, and wireless sensor networks are being used to access a variety of applications and resources. Furthermore, while fast adoption of wireless sensor networks enhances network usage, it suffers from power shortages owing to the low active power of wireless sensor nodes. A variety of power management techniques have been tried to enhance lifespan maximization; however they all have flaws in terms of quality and effectiveness. An Improved Time Division Multi attribute Sleep (ITDMS) protocol using the popular APTEEN algorithm has indeed been explored in this study to address this issue. Cluster formation was accomplished using the APTEEN protocol, and the suggested approach exchanges info about the status with its neighbors at every data collecting time slot. The technique selects the condition using approximation based on neighbor information, neighbor's power parameters, as well as its own metrics. The technique determines the condition and shifts its mode among sleep and wake up depending on the approximated level. With a total throughput of 98.4%, the suggested technique extends the life of WSNs and increases data collecting efficiency.
