Cycle‐Consistent Generative Adversarial Network and Crypto Hash Signature Token‐based Block chain Technology for Data Aggregation with Secured Routing in Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract

SummaryA fundamental component of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) is routing, because it is responsible for data transmission to the base stations (BS). Routing attacks are attacks that have the ability to interfere with the operation of WSN. A reliable routing system is needed for guaranteeing routing security including WSN effectiveness. Many studies have been conducted to improve trust among routing nodes, cryptographic algorithms and centralized routing decisions. Nevertheless, most of the routing techniques are not practical because it is challenging to detect suspicious actions of routing nodes. Generally, there is lack of reliable technique for preventing malicious node attacks. Therefore in this manuscript, Cycle‐Consistent Generative Adversarial Network (CCGAN) optimized with Ebola Optimization Search Algorithm (EOSA) and Crypto Hash Signature (CHS) Token‐based Block chain (BC) Technology for Data Aggregation with Secured Routing in Wireless Sensor Networks (SR‐CCGAN‐EOSA‐BDA‐WSN) is proposed for data aggregation with secured optimum routing in WSN. The proposed methodology uses a Proof of Authority (PoA) method in the block chain network to authenticate the process of node transmission. A Cycle‐Consistent Generative Adversarial Network optimized with the Ebola optimization algorithm methodology (CCGAN‐EOSA) is used to select the validation group required for proofing and select the proper next hop as a forwarding node proficient of securely and easily transmitting messages. The performance metrics, like delay, average latency with energy consumption, block chain token transactions throughput is analyzed. The performance of SR‐CCGAN‐EOSA‐BDAWSN proposed method provides 76.26%, 65.57%, and 42.9% lesser delay under 30% spiteful routing environment; 73.06% are compared with existing methods.
