An Energy-Efficient Distributed Algorithm for Virtual Backbone Construction with Cellular Structure in WSN

The construction of virtual backbone within wireless sensor network (WSN) is an important means to reduce the redundant transmission and conserve limited energy resources. However, if there is not a rotation scheme for the virtual backbone, the network lifetime is still considerably limited due to t...
