To avoid premature failure due to excessive energy consumption of some nodes in the network, the node energy consumption problem was considered. Network life was maximized. For the problem of node energy consumption, multiple methods such as the shortest path method, optimization method, and power control method were used to solve the problem of optimization of the survival time of the wireless sensor network in different scenarios and improve the network lifetime. The results showed that the sub-gradient algorithm could balance the node energy consumption and the number of neighbor nodes and extend the maximum network lifetime. Therefore, under certain conditions, the algorithm is better than the algorithm using fixed transmission power.

Purpose This paper aims to provide prolonging network lifetime and optimizing energy consumption in mobile wireless sensor networks (MWSNs). Forming clusters of mobile nodes is a great task owing to their dynamic nature. Such clustering has to be performed with a higher consumption of energy. Perhaps sensor nodes might be supplied with batteries that cannot be recharged or replaced while in the field of operation. One optimistic approach to handle the issue of energy consumption is an efficient way of cluster organization using the particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique. Design/methodology/approach In this paper two improved versions of centralized PSO, namely, unequal clustering PSO (UC-PSO) and hybrid K-means clustering PSO (KC-PSO), are proposed, with a focus of achieving various aspects of clustering parameters such as energy consumption, network lifetime and packet delivery ratio to achieve energy-efficient and reliable communication in MWSNs. Findings Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that improved PSO algorithms provide a balanced energy consumption among the cluster heads and increase the network lifetime effectively. Research limitations/implications In this work, each sensor node transmits and receives packets at same energy level only. In this work, focus was on centralized clustering only. Practical implications To validate the proposed swarm optimization algorithm, a simulation-based performance analysis has been carried out using NS-2. In each scenario, a given number of sensors are randomly deployed and performed in a monitored area. In this work, simulations were carried out in a 100 × 100 m2 network consisting 200 nodes by using a network simulator under various parameters. The coordinate of base station is assumed to be 50 × 175. The energy consumption due to communication is calculated using the first-order radio model. It is considered that all nodes have batteries with initial energy of 2 J, and the sensing range is fixed at 20 m. The transmission range of each node is up to 25 m and node mobility is set to 10 m/s. Practical implications This proposed work utilizes the swarm behaviors and targets the improvement of mobile nodes’ lifetime and energy consumption. Originality/value PSO algorithms have been implemented for dynamic sensor nodes, which optimize the clustering and CH selection in MWSNs. A new fitness function is evaluated to improve the network lifetime, energy consumption, cluster formation, packet transmissions and cluster head selection.

Purpose This paper aims to provide a prolonging network lifetime and optimizing energy consumption in mobile wireless sensor networks (MWSNs). MWSNs have characteristics of dynamic topology due to the factors such as energy consumption and node movement that lead to create a problem in lifetime of the sensor network. Node clustering in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) helps in extending the network life time by reducing the nodes’ communication energy and balancing their remaining energy. It is necessary to have an effective clustering algorithm for adapting the topology changes and improve the network lifetime. Design/methodology/approach This work consists of two centralized dynamic genetic algorithm-constructed algorithms for achieving the objective in MWSNs. The first algorithm is based on improved Unequal Clustering-Genetic Algorithm, and the second algorithm is Hybrid K-means Clustering-Genetic Algorithm. Findings Simulation results show that improved genetic centralized clustering algorithm helps to find the good cluster configuration and number of cluster heads to limit the node energy consumption and enhance network lifetime. Research limitations/implications In this work, each node transmits and receives packets at the same energy level throughout the solution. The proposed approach was implemented in centralized clustering only. Practical implications The main reason for the research efforts and rapid development of MWSNs occupies a broad range of circumstances in military operations. Social implications The research highly gains impacts toward mobile-based applications. Originality/value A new fitness function is proposed to improve the network lifetime, energy consumption and packet transmissions of MWSNs.

Background & Objective: Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) consist of huge number of tiny senor nodes. WSN collects environmental data and sends to the base station through multi-hop wireless communication. QoS is the salient aspect in wireless sensor networks that satisfies end-to-end QoS requirement on different parameters such as energy, network lifetime, packets delivery ratio and delay. Among them Energy consumption is the most important and challenging factor in WSN, since the senor nodes are made by battery reserved that tends towards life time of sensor networks. Methods: In this work an Improve-Energy Aware Multi-hop Multi-path Hierarchy (I-EAMMH) QoS based routing approach has been proposed and evaluated that reduces energy consumption and delivers data packets within time by selecting optimum cost path among discovered routes which extends network life time. Results and Conclusion: Simulation has been done in MATLAB on varying number of rounds 400- 2000 to checked the performance of proposed approach. I-EAMMH is compared with existing routing protocols namely EAMMH and LEACH and performs better in terms of end-to-end-delay, packet delivery ratio, as well as reduces the energy consumption 13%-19% and prolongs network lifetime 9%- 14%.

Background: This paper presents a novel Energy Efficient Clustering and Routing Algorithm (EECRA) for WSN. It is a clustering-based algorithm that minimizes energy dissipation in wireless sensor networks. The proposed algorithm takes into consideration energy conservation of the nodes through its inherent architecture and load balancing technique. In the proposed algorithm the role of inter-cluster transmission is not performed by gateways instead a chosen member node of respective cluster is responsible for data forwarding to another cluster or directly to the sink. Our algorithm eases out the load of the gateways by distributing the transmission load among chosen sensor node which acts as a relay node for inter-cluster communication for that round. Grievous simulations show that EECRA is better than PBCA and other algorithms in terms of energy consumption per round and network lifetime. Objective: The objective of this research lies in its inherent architecture and load balancing technique. The sole purpose of this clustering-based algorithm is that it minimizes energy dissipation in wireless sensor networks. Method: This algorithm is tested with 100 sensor nodes and 10 gateways deployed in the target area of 300m × 300m. The round assumed in this simulation is same as in LEACH. The performance metrics used for comparisons are (a) network lifetime of gateways and (b) energy consumption per round by gateways. Our algorithm gives superior result compared to LBC, EELBCA and PBCA. Fig 6 and Fig 7 shows the comparison between the algorithms. Results: The simulation was performed on MATLAB version R2012b. The performance of EECRA is compared with some existing algorithms like PBCA, EELBCA and LBCA. The comparative analysis shows that the proposed algorithm outperforms the other existing algorithms in terms of network lifetime and energy consumption. Conclusion: The novelty of this algorithm lies in the fact that the gateways are not responsible for inter-cluster forwarding, instead some sensor nodes are chosen in every cluster based on some cost function and they act as a relay node for data forwarding. Note the algorithm does not address the hot-spot problem. Our next endeavor will be to design an algorithm with consideration of hot-spot problem.

Wireless sensor network (WSN) is an integral part of IoT and Maximizing the network lifetime is a challenging task. Clustering is the most popular energy efficient technique which leads to increased lifetime stability and reduced energy consumption. Though clustering offers several advantages, it eventually raises the burden of CHs located in proximity to the Base Station (BS) in multi-hop data transmission which makes the CHs near BS die earlier than other CHs. This issue is termed as hot spot problem and unequal clustering protocols were introduced to handle it. Presently, some of the clustering protocols are developed using Type-2 Fuzzy Logic (T2FL) but none of them addresses hot spot problem. This paper presents a Type-2 Fuzzy Logic based Unequal Clustering Algorithm (T2FLUCA) for the elimination of hot spot problem and also for lifetime maximization of WSN. The proposed algorithm uses residual energy, distance to BS and node degree as input to T2FL to determine the probability of becoming CHs (PCH) and cluster size. For experimentation, T2FLUCA is tested on three different scenarios and the obtained results are compared with LEACH, TEEN, DEEC and EAUCF in terms of network lifetime, throughput and average energy consumption. The experimental results ensure that T2FLUCA outperforms state of art methods in a significant way.

Since wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are powered by energy-constrained batteries, many energy-efficient routing protocols have been proposed to extend the network lifetime. However, most of the protocols do not well balance the energy consumption of the WSNs. The hotspot problem caused by unbalanced energy consumption in the WSNs reduces the network lifetime. To solve the problem, this paper proposes a PSO (Particle Swarm Optimization)-based uneven dynamic clustering multi-hop routing protocol (PUDCRP). In the PUDCRP protocol, the distribution of the clusters will change dynamically when some nodes fail. The PSO algorithm is used to determine the area where the candidate CH (cluster head) nodes are located. The adaptive clustering method based on node distribution makes the cluster distribution more reasonable, which balances the energy consumption of the network more effectively. In order to improve the energy efficiency of multi-hop transmission between the BS (Base Station) and CH nodes, we also propose a connecting line aided route construction method to determine the most appropriate next hop. Compared with UCCGRA, multi-hop EEBCDA, EEMRP, CAMP, PSO-ECHS and PSO-SD, PUDCRP prolongs the network lifetime by between 7.36% and 74.21%. The protocol significantly balances the energy consumption of the network and has better scalability for various sizes of network.

Wireless Sensor Networks consisting of nodes with limited power are deployed to collect and distribute useful information from the field to the other sensor nodes. Energy consumption is a key issue in the sensor’s communications since many use battery power, which is limited. In this paper, we describe a novel energy efficient routing approach which combines swarm intelligence, especially the ant colony based meta-heuristic, with a novel variation of reinforcement learning for sensor networks (ARNet). The main goal of our study was to maintain network lifetime at a maximum, while discovering the shortest paths from the source nodes to the sink node using an improved swarm intelligence. ARNet balances the energy consumption of nodes in the network and extends the network lifetime. Simulation results show that compared with the traditional EEABR algorithm can obviously improve adaptability and reduce the average energy consumption effectively.

This model overcomes shortcomings of the traditional BP neural network model. Using the optimized BP neural network to efficiently extract WSN data and fusion the features among a small number of original date, then sends the extracted features date to aggregation nodes, thus enhance the efficiency of data fusion and prolong the network lifetime.
