Abstract: A transmission protocol based on clustering is proposed to realize cooperative transmission in wireless sensor networks.The energy efficiency and throughput of this protocol are analyzed,and the applicability condition of the protocol is given.The analysis and simulation results show that if properly used,the proposed cooperative transmission protocol is very helpful to improve the performances,both energy saving and throughput of the networks in the noisy environment.
