A Novel Scheme to Minimize Hop Count for GAF in Wireless Sensor Networks: Two-Level GAF

Figure 10

Comparison of the average energy consumption of T-GAF/T-DGAF with the proposed coordination election scheme using residual energy versus combination residual energy and the location of sensors within the grid (i.e., X_T-GAF/X_T-DGAF).
(a) T-GAF versus X_T-GAF
(b) T-DGAF versus X_T-DGAF
