Advances in Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) technology has provided the availability of small and low-cost sensor
nodes with capability of sensing various types of physical and environmental conditions, data processing, and wireless communication. In WSN, the sensor nodes have a limited transmission range, and their processing and storage capabilities as well as their energy resources are also limited. Routing protocols for wireless sensor networks are responsible for maintaining the routes in the network and have to ensure reliable multi-hop communication under these conditions. In this paper, we give a routing protocol for WSN and define the transmission on the basis of residual energy of Cluster Head (CH).

Keywords: Wireless Sensor Network, Cluster Head, Gateway Node.
