文摘
Energy efficient routing in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) require non-conventional paradigm for design and development of power aware protocols. Swarm intelligence (SI) based metaheuristic can be applied for optimal routing of data, in an energy constraint WSNs environment. In this paper, we present BeeSwarm, a SI based energy-efficient hierarchical routing protocol for WSNs. Our protocol consists of three phases: (1) Set-up phase-BeeCluster, (2) Route discovery phase-BeeSearch and (3) Data transmission phase-BeeCarrier. Integration of three phases for clustering, data routing and transmission, is the key aspect of our proposed protocol, which ultimately contributes to its robustness. Evaluation of simulation results show that BeeSwarm perform better in terms of packet delivery, energy consumption and throughput with increased network life compared to other SI based hierarchical routing protocols.
