Improvements in Routing Algorithms to Enhance Lifetime of Wireless Sensor Networks

摘要

Wireless sensor network (WSN) brings a new paradigm of real-time embedded systems with limitedcomputation, communication, memory, and energy resources that are being used fora huge range ofapplications. Clustering in WSNs is an effective way to minimize the energy consumption of sensor nodes.In this paper improvements in various parameters are compared for three different routing algorithms.First, it is started with Low Energy Adaptive Cluster Hierarchy (LEACH)which is a famed clusteringmechanism that elects a CH based on the probability model. Then, work describes a Fuzzy logic systeminitiated CH selection algorithm for LEACH. Then Artificial Bee Colony (ABC)which is an optimisationprotocol owes its inspiration to the exploration behaviour of honey bees. In this study ABC optimizationalgorithm is proposed for fuzzy rule selection. Then, the results of the three routing algorithms arecompared with respect to various parameters.
