Proposed energy efficient clustering and routing for wireless sensor network

Wireless sensor network (WSN) is considered a growing research field that includes numerous sensor nodes used to gather, process, and broadcast information. Energy efficiency is considered one of the challenging tasks in the WSN. The clustering and routing are considered capable approaches to solve the issues of energy efficiency and enhance the network’s lifetime. In this research, the multi-objective-energy based black widow optimization algorithm (M-EBWOA) is proposed to perform the cluster-based routing over the WSN. The M-EBWOA-based optimal cluster head discovery is used to assure an energy-aware routing over the WSN. The main goal of this M-EBWOA is to minimize the energy consumed by the nodes while improving the data delivery of the WSN. The performance of the M-EBWOA is analyzed as alive and dead nodes, dissipated energy, packets sent to base station, and life expectancy. The existing research such as low-energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH), hybrid grey wolf optimizer-based sunflower optimization (HGWSFO), genetic algorithm-particle swarm optimization (GA-PSO), and energy-centric multi-objective Salp Swarm algorithm (ECMOSSA) are used to evaluate the efficiency of M-EBWOA. The alive nodes of the M-EBWOA are 100 for 2,500 rounds, which is higher than the LEACH, HGWSFO, GA-PSO, and ECMOSSA

An energy-efficient cluster head selection in wireless sensor network using grey wolf optimization algorithm

Clustering is considered as one of the most prominent solutions to preserve theenergy in the wireless sensor networks. However, for optimal clustering, anenergy efficient cluster head selection is quite important. Improper selectionofcluster heads(CHs) consumes high energy compared to other sensor nodesdue to the transmission of data packets between the cluster members and thesink node. Thereby, it reduces the network lifetime and performance of thenetwork. In order to overcome the issues, we propose a novelcluster headselection approach usinggrey wolf optimization algorithm(GWO) namelyGWO-CH which considers the residual energy, intra-cluster and sink distance.In addition to that, we formulated an objective function and weight parametersfor anefficient cluster head selection and cluster formation. The proposedalgorithm is tested in different wireless sensor network scenarios by varyingthe number of sensor nodes and cluster heads. The observed results conveythat the proposed algorithm outperforms in terms of achieving better networkperformance compare to other algorithms
