In this paper, we propose an improved routing algorithm to prolong network lifetime of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) by combining the shortest hop routing tree (SHORT) algorithm and the, turn off redundant node (TORN) MAC layer protocol to cross layer SHORTORN scheme. Moreover, to prolong the lifetime of the first node death (FND) in networks, the rate of energy consumption should be balanced for all nodes. Therefore, this paper further proposes a load balancing SHORTORN scheme by combining the weight and energy-aware, called energy-aware weight-based SHORTORN (EWSHORTORN). The proposed EWSHORTORN algorithm lets more nodes share the load of the leader and balances the opportunity of data relaying to all nodes. The proposed load balancing scheme allocates energy consumption load to be more uniformly among all nodes, thus the FNL can be prolonged evidently. Simulation results show that the proposed EWSHORTORN outperforms the SHORT scheme with double lifetime of FND.Keywords: wireless sensor networks, network lifetime, cross layer protocol, load balance.
