Secure Multicast Routing for Wireless Sensor Networks using ACO-AODV with DHKE Cryptosystem

The wireless communication plays a major role in transferring data in the form of packets from one place to another in an efficient way. The Wireless Sensor Network (WSNs) gathers large amount of information through SNs (SNs) occupied in a huge area. The important parameters are clustering, power consumption, lifetime and efficient multicast of data in secured way with interconnected mobile nodes. The Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) clustering algorithm is used to maintain the life time of the whole network and to consume less energy in every node. The Adhoc On-demand Distance Vector Routing (AODV) is a novel multicast routing protocol when a node requires a route to a destination. The Diffie-Hellman Key exchange algorithm (DHKE) is used to transmit data from one cluster network to another cluster network in an efficient way. The ACO-AODV-DHKE algorithm precisely transmit data from Source to Destination (S-D) by evaluating better throughput, Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), Packet Loss (PL), End-to-End Delay (E-ED) and Energy Consumption (EC) in secured environment.
