Description: Power consumption is an important design criterion in
the design of wireless sensor networks. Hybrid radio
frequency/free space optical wireless sensor networks (RF/FSO
WSN) have been proposed to reduce the energy consumption of
traditional RF-based sensor networks. This paper compares the
performance of such a hybrid sensor network against the wellknown
RF-based low energy adapting clustering hierarchy
(LEACH) WSN proposed in the literature. Network performance
is studied in terms of network lifetime and average network area
coverage. Simulations show that despite not employing data
aggregation, the RF/FSO WSN has a longer lifetime and larger
average network coverage when compared to the LEACH WSN
