Binomial Probability Density Function: Energy Efficient Approach to Wireless Sensor Network

Energy consumption is the major issue in any Sensor Networks. The lifetime of a network is directly dependent upon the amount of energy consumed by the nodes. If the nodes consume energy intelligently and operate for longer period then lifetime of a network can be enhanced. WSN consists of hundreds to thousands of nodes which consume energy while transmitting the information and with a span of time whole energy get consumed and network life time gets reduced. From the data capturing, processing, transmission and reception large amount of energy has been consumed. The source of power used in WSN is irreplaceable which limits the lifetime of the system. A probability based approach to calculate initial probability is tried in this paper. MATLAB simulation tool is considered in this paper.
