Abstract Wireless networking of few hundreds or thousands of low-priced sensor nodes enables us to monitor a secluded area. By using clustering protocol, we get much accurate results of the sensing field with low transmission costs. In this paper we develop and analyze MSECHP, a heterogeneous aware protocol and effect of applying virtual grid on the sensor network field to evenly divide the entire WSN into the optimal number of clusters. To calculate the probability, of a sensor node to become cluster head three factors are considered. These factors are energy distribution among all the nodes of the same cluster, equal energy distribution among sensor nodes which have different residual energy and distance from the sink node. We show by the result of the simulation, MSECHP provides more stability than other clustering protocols. Keywords WSN Base station BS

1 Introduction Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a network of very small sensor nodes, which senses the data from the external environment and transmit it to other sensor node or sink node which also known as a base station using wireless communication protocols [1]. In most cases wireless sensor nodes are deployed to monitor remote areas or locations, which do not have sufficient resources for network communiK.R.

cation, such as wired network or consistent power supply. WSNs are mostly operated in the infrastructure less environment, therefore sensor nodes use battery as power (energy) source and it uses wireless transceiver to transmit or receive the data from sink node or other sensor nodes. Structure of the sensor node consists of sensing unit to sense the data from the external environment, limited on board processing unit to process the data and radio transceiver to transmit or receive the data for communication. Because of the network is operated in unattended environment, replacement of the battery of the sensor nodes are not possible. So to increase the life time of the wireless sensor network, energy aware communication protocols are most needed. In the TEEN [2] sensor networks are classified into (1) Proactive Networks, in which sensor nodes periodically sense the data and send the data towards the sink node (SN) or base station (BS) and (2) Reactive Network, in which sensor nodes sense the data and transmit it to the BS if and only if there is sudden drastic change in the data. Such protocols are well suited for real time or time critic
