Abstract- For optimized working of network many routing algorithms have been proposed, mainly focusing energy efficiency, network lifetime, clustering processes. Considering homogeneity of network, we proposed Energy Efficient Sleep Awake Aware (EESAA) intelligent routing protocol for WSNs. In EESAA unstable region starts very later as compare to other protocols. Results show that in EESAA nodes die at a constant rate. In this paper performance of clustering algorithms on the basis of stability period, network life time and throughput for WSNs is evaluated. This observation depicts that in EESAA (Energy Efficient Sleep Awake Aware) energy dissipation is properly distributed among all the nodes in the network which in result increases network lifetime. In EESAA nodes also switches between sleep and active modes in order to minimize energy consumption.

Consider a situation of multi-hop wireless communication in a sensor network in which the information from a node is transferred to the base station using ad hoc multi hop network. That is, the sensed information from a field sensor node is forwarded by multiple intermediate nodes until information reaches the base station. Wireless sensor networks are attracting great interest in a number of application do-mains concerned with monitoring and control of physical phenomena, as they enable dense and effective deployments at low cost. Advancement in technologies devices, many opportunities for efficient usage of resources in critical atmospheres. Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) brought a revolutionary change in this context [2]. Gathering and delivering of useful information to the destination, became able with advent of this technology. Applications like battlefield surveillance, smart office, traffic monitoring and etc, can be well monitored through such schemes.

2. WIRELESS SYSTEM There are four basic components that can be found in all sensor nodes. These components are: a power unit, a processing unit, a sensing unit and a transceiver. Some sensor nodes also contain optional components such as a location finding system, a mobilizer or a power generator. Fig. 1 shows the basic components. The power unit is very important in a sensor node. It is responsible for providing all of the other units with energy so that the node can perform its functions. A

power generator or power scavenging unit can support the power unit. Solar cells could be used as power scavenging units.

The power unit is very important in a sensor node. It is responsible for providing all of the other units with energy so that the node can perform its functions. A power generator or power scavenging unit can support the power unit. Solar cells could be used as power scavenging units. Clustering algorithms like LEACH, and DEEC [3,4] for sensor networks have achieved reasonable goals regarding better performance of networks. The processing unit consists of a processor and some storage or memory. This unit is responsible for managing the tasks of the sensor unit. The sensing unit generally consists of a sensor and an analogue to digital converter (ADC). The ADC converts the analogue data from the sensor to digital data that can be processed by the processor. The transceiver connects the sensor node to the network[6]. The
