Network energy optimization and intelligent routing in WSN applicable for IoT using self‐adaptive coyote optimization algorithm

Abstract

Summary The Internet of Things (IoT) is a recent wireless telecommunications platform, which contains a set of sensor nodes linked by wireless sensor networks (WSNs). These approaches split the sensor nodes into clusters, in which each cluster consists of an exclusive cluster head (CH) node. The major scope of this task is to introduce a novel CH selection in WSN applicable to IoT using the self‐adaptive meta‐heuristic algorithm. This paper aids in providing the optimal routing in the network based on direct node (DN) selection, CH selection, and clone cluster head (CCH) selection. DNs are located near the base station, and it is chosen to avoid the load of CH. The adoption of the novel self‐adaptive coyote optimization algorithm (SA‐COA) is used for the DN selection and CCH selection. When the nodes are assigned in the network, DN and CCH selection is performed by the proposed SA‐COA. Then, the computation of residual energy helps to select the CH, by correlating with the threshold energy. CCH is proposed to copy the data from the CH to avoid the loss of data in transmitting. By forming the CCH, the next CH can be easily elected with the optimal CCH using SA‐COA. From the simulation findings, the best value of the designed SA‐COA‐LEACH model is secured at 1.14%, 3.17%, 1.18%, and 7.33% progressed than self‐adaptive whale optimization algorithm (SAWOA), cyclic rider optimization algorithm (C‐ROA), krill herd algorithm (KHA), and COA while taking several nodes 50. The proposed routing of sensor networks specifies better performance than the existing methods.
