Optimized Wireless Sensor Node Multidimensional Routing using Fuzzy Clustering and Chaotic Gravitational Search Algorithm
A network of tiny sensors located at various regions for sensing and transmitting information is termed as wireless sensor networks. The information from multiple network nodes reach the destination node or the base station where data processing is performed. In larger search spaces, the clustering mechanisms and routing solutions provided by the existing heuristic algorithms are often inefficient. The sensor node resources are depleted by un-optimized processes created by reduced routing and clustering optimization levels in large search spaces. Chaotic Gravitational Search Algorithm and Fuzzy based clustering schemes are used to overcome the limitations and challenges of the conventional routing systems. This enables effective routing and efficient clustering in large search spaces. In each cluster, among the available nodes, appropriate node is selected as the cluster head. Reduction in delay, increase in energy consumption, increase in network lifetime and improvement of the network clustering accuracy are evident from the simulation results.
