<![CDATA[Water is a vital resource that is essential for human survival and economic development. In any case, water shortage and wastage have become significant difficulties that undermine economical turn of distribution network. A critical reason for water wastage is water leakage in the distribution system, which prompts an extensive loss of water assets and energy. Conventional manual techniques for identifying water leakage are tedious, work serious, and frequently ineffectual. Hence, there is a need for an automated system that can efficiently detect, control and monitor water leakage to improve water management. In this paper, cluster-based water leakage detection (CBWLAD) algorithm for the improvement of water management using wireless sensor network (WSN) is proposed. The design system contains sensor nodes which are conveyed all through the water distribution networks and associated with central control unit. The sensor nodes can distinguish changes in the water pressure and flow rate, which are indicative of water leakage. The real time monitoring feature also enables timely maintenance and repair of the network of water distribution prolongs the lifespan of infrastructure. Further, the research and development are required to optimize the system’s performance and adapt it to real-world scenarios.]]>
