Due to the hopeful application of gathering information from unreachable position, wireless sensor network creates an immense challenge for data routing to maximize the communication with more energy efficient. In order to design the energy efficient routing, the optimization based clustering protocols are more preferred in wireless sensor network. In this paper, we have proposed competent optimization based algorithm called ANT colony Optimization clustering algorithm for creating the energy efficient routing path. WSNs comprise of countless spatially dispersed sensor hubs associated through the remote medium to screen and record the actual data from the climate. The hubs of WSN are battery controlled, so after a specific period it free whole energy. This energy limitation influences the lifetime of the organization. The goal of this review is to limit the generally energy utilization and to boost the organization lifetime. In this paper, a new method to optimize number of clusters is presented with suitable results..

A wireless sensor network (WSN) is a gathering of sensor hubs that powerfully self-sort themselves into a wireless system without the use of any previous framework. One of the serious issues in WSNs is the energy consumption, whereby the system lifetime is subject to this factor. Energy-efficient routing is viewed as the most testing errand. Sensor organizes for the most part work in perplexing and dynamic situations and directing winds up repetitive assignment to keep up as the system measure increments. This chapter portrays the structure of wireless sensor network the analysis and study of different research works identified with energy-efficient routing in wireless sensor networks. Along these lines, to beat all the routing issues, the pattern has moved to biological-based algorithms like swarm intelligence-based strategies. Ant colony optimization-based routing protocols have shown outstanding outcomes as far as execution when connected to WSN routing.
