Abstract: Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have sensing, data processing and communicating capabilities. The major task of the sensor node is to gather the data from the sensed field and send it to the end user via the base station (BS). To satisfy the scalability and prolong the network lifetime the sensor nodes are grouped into clusters. This paper proposes a new clustering algorithm named New Data Clustering Algorithm (NDCA). It takes optimal number of the clusters and the data packets sent from the surrounding environment to be the cluster head (CH) selection criteria.
