Wireless sensor network are emerging in various fields like environmental monitoring, mining, surveillance system, medical monitoring. Wireless sensor networks consist of thousands of tiny nodes having the capability of sensing, computation and wireless Communications. Leach protocol is used as low energy consumption routing protocol. Communication between clustered data and Base station is done via Cluster head only so cluster head selection is one of challenging issue in wireless communication. In this paper we have introduced proposed approach for cluster head selection using neurofuzzy algorithm. Comparative analysis of proposed leach is done with leach, leach c, leach cc .Simulation results conclude that our proposed leach can improve life time of network and save more energy as compare to other leach protocols.

Keywords: Wireless sensor network, Leach, Leach C, Leach CC, Cluster Head Selection, Network life time.
