SCATN employs computation node and transmission node to undertake the cluster head's function data computation and transmission. The distribution probability of functional nodes is controlled to tackle with the problems raised. The generation and distribution of functional node is controlled by self-organized manner to solve the problem of distribution and connection. The ordinary nodes choose its belonged cluster to adjust the computation node's load. Simulation indicates that SCATN can effectively extend the network lifetime, improve the throughput at the sink and decrease the packet loss rate in comparison with several existing clustering algorithms. %U https://journal.bupt.edu.cn/EN/10.13190/j.jbupt.2017-202
