Abstract

Wireless Sensor Networks consist of inexpensive nodes that are positioned over an area to collect the useful information and send the valuable data to the base station for further processing. In wireless sensor networks, nodes have limited power and shorter lifetime. So, it is crucial to aggregate the data in Energy Efficient manner and optimize the lifetime of the network. To solve the issue, Ant Colony Optimization, a Swarm Intelligence based Routing Technique is used. The proposed system is a Routing Approach based on ACO Algorithm along with the Clustering approach in which Cluster Head is elected based on maximum value of energy and degree to maximize Energy Efficiency of the network and to increase the lifetime of the network. Performance obtained from the simulation results shows that the proposed approach provides an Optimized solution in terms of Enhanced Network Lifetime and Efficient Energy Utilization.
