%X <p>An exclusive-area-based connected dominating set algorithm is proposed for wireless sensor networks. Using exclusive covering and back-off delay rules, each node maintains an exclusive area where at most one dominating node exists so as to reduce the size of connected dominating set. According to node residual energy, the distribution of dominating nodes to enhance energy efficiency and balance network load are optimized. Simulation results demonstrate that the exclusive-area-based connected dominating set can reduce connected dominating set size along with a sparse distribution, and prolongs network lifetime.</p>
