Abstract
As Sensor area network is a vast network with thousands of nodes, the workload increases upto a great extent. This increased workload leads to increase in packet loss and decrease in network lifetime. Even the rate of message failure as well as node failure due to network congestion also increases. In order to avoid such problems and enhance the network lifetime, we are introducing a new algorithm for the purpose of load balancing i.e. Distributed Load Balancing (DisLB). DisLB is a type of load balancing approach in which load has to be distributed on neighboring nodes instead of central nodes in which an All to All communication mode has been assumed.
