Abstract Wireless Sensor and actor networks (WSANs) are the most vital research area in the wireless communication field. It consists of sensors, actors, and the base station, where actor nodes work as these networks' spine. The network's main objective is to sense the critical information from the area of interest and then send it to the base station. After that, it can make accurate decisions. This project proposes an Energy-Efficient Routing Mechanism (EERM) technique for the effective routing process. It works in three phases, which are Network initialization, data gathering, and routing. Once the node senses the data and tries to forward it to the base station, it chooses the sensor/ actor nodes from its neighbors having more energy and less distance towards the base station, a final node. As a result, there are significantly fewer chances of data loss due to battery depletion. Moreover, it confirms that there is no data duplication. After successful data transmission, the node will be set as in sleeping mode to save energy. EERM evaluates with other gossiping routing techniques like FELGossiping, ELGossiping, and LGossiping. It notices that there is less data packet loss in it. More nodes are alive in additional iterations due to energy-efficient solutions, which increases the network lifetime.

An energy-efficient wireless sensor routing protocol (Energy-efficient clustering hierarchy routing protocol, EECH) for industrial field is proposed based on LEACH protocol according to the energy inefficiency of existing routing protocols and the characteristics of industrial field applications. The EECH protocol takes full advantages of the node clustering and time slot distribution in LEACH and implements the functions such as clustering, multi hop time slot distribution, node sleeping and data gathering. The cluster heads can be evenly distributed in the area with the geography location information of the wireless nodes, so that the optimal data gathering path can be established. Meanwhile, the EECH protocol can reduce the conflict in data receiving/transmitting and the energy consumption of the nodes, and extend the network lifetime through the multi hop time slot distribution and node sleep mechanism. The simulation results have shown that the death time of the first node in EECH protocol is extended double time than that of LEACH protocol. When most of the nodes dies, the amount of received data of the base station node is more than twice as much as the LEACH protocol, which has verified the energy efficiency characteristic of the EECH protocol.

Preserving energy of sensor node in wireless sensor network is an effort to prolong the lifetime of network. Energy of sensor node is very crucial because battery powered and irreplaceable. Energy conservation of sensor node is an effort to reduce energy consumption in order to preserve resource for network lifetime. It can be achieved through efficient energy usage by reducing consumption of energy or decrease energy usage while achieving a similar outcome. In this paper, the authors propose power layer energy efficient routing protocol in wireless sensor network, named PLRP, which use power control and multi-hop routing protocol to control overhead of sensor node and create clustering to distribute energy dissipation and increase energy efficiency of all sensor node. The main idea of PLRP is the use of power control, which divide sensor node into group by base station uses layer of energy and maximize the computation energy in base station to reduce computational energy in sensor node for conservation of network lifetime. The performance of PLRP compared to BCDCP and BIDRP based of hierarchical routing protocol. The simulation results show that PLRP achieve 25% and 30% of improvement on network lifetime.

There are certain challenges faced with wireless sensor networks (WSNs) performances, consumption can be seen amongst all these challenges as a serious area of research. Data from sensor nodes are transmitted by most WSN energy either among many nodes or to the base station (BS), and due this connection, several routing protocols were developed for supporting in data transmission in the WSNs. Extending network lifetime in an operational environment is the major objective of the wireless sensor network. Charging or exchanging sensor node batteries is almost impossible. Energy balancing and energy efficiency are significant research scopes as per designing of routing protocols aimed at self-organized WSNs. A heterogeneous WSN is one where every node has different amount of energy linked to it before it is deployed in a network. Therefore, different energy efficient routing protocols have been proposed which enables lesser consumption of energy, longer stability period which leads to the network lifetime increasing. In this study, the average energy of a WSN is computed after every logical round of operation for our protocol-HPEEA and compare it with two well-known heterogeneous protocols namely-SEP and CCS. At the end of the considered number of logical operations, MATLAB with simulation results confirm that HPEEA protocol have a reduction in the energy consumption compared to other protocols.


Today, the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is emerging to be a very promising technology to be employed in the future. There were different protocols in energy-efficient routing that were designed and further developed for the WSNs for the purpose of supporting data delivery given to their respective destinations. The different techniques of clustering are perused widely by different researchers for increasing their objectives of scalability and also their lifetime. There have been many protocols used for the creation of a hierarchical structure to reduce the cost of the path at the time of making any communication to the base station. This work increases an energy lifetime and the stability of the network in an efficient manner within the protocols of clustering for which several protocols were suggested. Discussion is made on the Bat Algorithm (BA), the Bat algorithm along with mutation and the Genetic Algorithm (GA). This BAT algorithm had search abilities with various applications to solve problems in engineering. There was viability for the mutated BAT algorithms observed in various tasks that were proven and were shown by the empirical outcomes thus making the proposed scheme to perform better in comparison with all schemes

Due to its boundless potential applications, Wireless Sensor Networks have been subject to much research in the last two decades. WSNs are often deployed in remote environments making replacement of batteries not feasible. Low energy consumption being of prime requisite led to the development of energy-efficient routing protocols. The proposed routing algorithms seek to prolong the lifetime of sensor nodes in the relatively unexplored area of 3D WSNs. The schemes use chain-based routing technique PEGASIS as basis and employ genetic algorithm to build the chain instead of the greedy algorithm. Proposed schemes will incorporate an energy and distance aware CH selection technique to improve load balancing. Clustering of the network is also implemented to reduce number of nodes in a chain and hence reduce delay. Simulation of our proposed protocols is carried out for homogeneous networks considering separately cases for a static base-station inside and outside the network. Results indicate considerable improvement in lifetime over PEGASIS of 817% and 420% for base station inside and outside the network respectively. Residual energy and delay performance are also considered.

In wireless sensor networks Energy-efficient routing is an important issue due to the limited battery power within the network, Energy consumption is one of the important performance factors.
