An Energy Efficient Routing and Compression Based Data Collection Applying Bio-Inspired Ant-Cuckoo Technique for Wireless Sensor Network

WSN is a network wherein energy constrained sensors and Base Station (BS) are spatially distributed. Each sensors consists of limited power supply in terms of battery and hence, information sensed must be transferred to the BS by consuming optimal energy, henceforth prolonging the operational period of network. This paper mainly focuses on designing energy proficient algorithm for routing called Bioinspired antcuckoo optimized relay based energy-efficient data aggregation (BACREED-LEACH) for network of WSN. In the anticipated work, BS is not involved in cluster formation and the work is carried out in 2 phases. The first phase involves identification of number of clusters, the CHs (CH), cluster membership and the relay node(RN). The second phase, intra cluster communication, data aggregation at CH, followed by transmission of aggregated data from CH to BS via RN. The intra cluster communication prevents loss of energy of nodes which are far away from the CH node. The RN prevents loss of energy of CH nodes by forwarding the data from CHs to BS. In the anticipated work, Ant Colony optimization (ACO) algorithm is used in first iteration for identifying number of CH and selection of CHs, followed by use Cuckoo Search for intra cluster communication as part of second phase. From second iteration onwards, ACO is used only for identifying number of clusters followed by cluster formation Cuckoo search followed by second phase. The experiment conducted in Spyder-py3 tool. The performance of anticipated work is evaluated in terms of network life time, average energy consumption, and average throughput. The anticipated work outperformed the results obtained Ant Cuckoo optimized using energy-efficient data aggregation (ACEED LEACH), Bioinspired ant-cuckoo optimized energy-efficient data aggregation (BACEED-LEACH), Ant optimized using Energy-Efficient Data aggregation (AEED LEACH), and Genetic Algorithm data Aggregation (GADA-LEACH).
