Wireless Sensor Network comprises several sensor nodes which communicate with each other for data forwarding. The node senses, computes, and transfers the data to the so-called base station. The applications of WSNs include nuclear power plants, environmental monitoring, disaster surveillance, agricultural control and security. The lifespan is an essential constraint in the design part of routing in a sensor network environment. The main purpose is to minimize the consumption of energy in data sharing (transmission and reception) and extend the network lifespan using the Cluster Optimized Routing Protocol (CORP). This work improves upon the existing model by selecting the near optimal cluster head for data transmission till the data reaches the sink. The proposed system may decrease energy consumption in data forwarding and perhaps prolong the lifespan of the node. By this approach, we tend to increase the energy efficiency and enhance the network’s lifetime. The results of the analysis and simulation indicate the performance of the proposed system is far better than the currently used comparative protocols.
