Abstract(in English) Changing Cluster Head(CH) before the energy of CH is exhausted is proposed. However, since the remaining energy of the former CH is small, it might be power down soon. In this paper, in order to achieve load-balancing, by focusing on that the energy of CH is not only consumed by the gathering data but also the relaying data to other cluster, and we introduce a Router node(R node) which takes charge of relay function instead of a CH which forwards data to other cluster. In this scheme, since it is possible to reduce the energy consumption of CH which forwards data by load-balancing, and the time when a received data rate falls can be extended. By the computer simulation, we show that our scheme can keep more nodes alive and improve success rate that the sink node correctly receives data than the conventional scheme.
