Abstract
Clustering in WSN proves to be phenomenal in maximizing network life. This paper comes up with a new clustering scheme with a mutual exclusion feature. A number of clustering protocols are employed in WSN, but none of the protocol has ensured or focused on mutual exclusion of a cluster head role over range of communication. The objective of this paper is to propose a new distributive clustering protocol which will also work like mutual exclusion algorithms. This mutual exclusive distributive protocol forms the cluster of sensors, and selects a cluster head which possesses the mutual exclusion property.
Keywords: Distributive clustering, mutual exclusion, WSN clustering.
