Abstract: In view of the constraint of energy cost in wireless sensor network node and privacy of communication data, a data fusion algorithm based on clustering technology was proposed. The algorithm solves the delay of data communication by the clustering technology. To reduce the traffic of data and protect data privacy, we use a proper algorithm to select the head cluster and construct data fusion tree structure to fusion data within a cluster. Among clusters, mobile agent model is used to select the best route to improve communication efficiency. Experimental results show the DFACT algorithm can effectively reduce the energy cost of largescale wireless sensor network, enhance data security and prolong the network lifetime.

Key words: wireless sensor network, clustering, mobile agent, data fusion tree, network lifetime
