In this work the LEACH protocol with J-sim simulation tool has been implemented, and consequently some useful trade-off analysis results among the EDCR (Energy, Density, Coverage and Reliability) parameters has been obtained. Based on these results, an intelligent evaluation model is proposed in this paper.enPersonal use of this material is permitted.
