Enhanced Cuckoo Search Based Intercluster Data Aggregation for WSNs

Abstract: The sensor nodes have restricted battery power and it is not easy to replace nodes scattered over large geographical areas energy has become scarcest resource of WSNs. So, a large no. of protocols has been proposed to conserve energy but still much enhancement can be done. So as to triumph over the limitations of the previous work a new improved technique is proposed in this paper. The proposed technique has the ability to overcome the limitations of the tree based routing protocol by using the reactivity and cuckoo search optimization based optimized path selection. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed protocol MATLAB has been used. Simulation results have shown that the proposed technique performs better than GSTEB in terms of network lifetime and residual energy.
