In wireless sensor networks, sensor nodes are usually powered by battery and thus have very limited energy. Saving energy is an important goal in designing a WSN. It is known that clustering is an effective method to prolong network lifetime. Due to the development of big data, there are more sensor nodes and data needed to process. So how to cluster sensor nodes cooperatively and achieve an optimal number of clusters in a big data WSN is an open issue. In this paper, we first propose an analytical model to give the optimal number of clusters in a wireless sensor network. We then propose a centralized cluster algorithm based on spectral partitioning method. After that, we present a distributed implementation of the clustering algorithm based on fuzzy C-means method. Finally, we conduct extensive simulations, and the results show that the proposed algorithms outperform the hybrid energy-efficient distributed (HEED) clustering algorithm in terms of energy cost and network lifetime.
