TSCP algorithm divides the sensor network into multiple chains and work within two stages. The first stage is dividing the nodes to horizontal chains that include all sensor nodes within the same row and one of the nodes in the chain will act as a head for other members. The second stage is involving the formation of vertical chain that includes all chain heads, one of the nodes in the vertical chain that includes all chain heads and selecting one of the nodes to act as a main head for the entire network. Simulation results show that TSCP algorithm outperforms CCM and CCBRP algorithms in terms of four performance metrics namely Network lifetime, FND and LND (First Node and Last Node Died), network stability period, and energy consumption. The main concern for TSCP algorithm is to extend the lifetime of wireless sensor network. As a result, TSCP could achieve an improvement over CCM and CCBRP algorithms in about 25% and 8% respectively for small network size (3 X 3) sensor nodes configuration. At the same time, TSCP could achieve about 29% and 9% improvement in comparison with CCM and CCBRP respectively using medium network size, (9 X 9) sensor nodes configuration.
