Routing in WSN using ACO

Vaishali B Nikhade | R. N. Devikar

Abstract: Increasing lifetime of Wireless sensor network is a critical issues today. For overcoming the issue a good wireless sensor network is needed to be designed as energy efficient. Routing is one of the reasons for reducing the lifespan of wireless sensor network. By making energy efficient routing algorithm we can increase the lifespan of the network. In this paper we have used the combination of load balancing ACO algorithm with TARF to increase lifetime of wireless sensor network. This algorithm helps in energy and time consumption and provides security against attacks.
