Abstract：For monitoring burst events in reactive wireless sensor networks, a new United Voting Dynamic Cluster (UVDC) routing algorithm based on residual-energy is proposed. Cluster head is periodically selected according to residual-energy among the nodes located in the event area, meanwhile a structure of cluster tree rooted at the cluster head is formed within the event area to gather and aggregate data. The data transmitted in network is reduced. Simulation results show that UVDC decreases the average energy consumption, as well as balances the energy dissipation effectively, and extends the lifetime of network.
