Dingo Optimization Based Cluster Based Routing in Internet of Things

Abstract

The Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a collection of distinct, geographically distributed, Internet-connected sensors, which is capable of processing, analyzing, storing, and exchanging collected information. However, the Internet of Things (IoT) devices in the network are equipped with limited resources and minimal computing capability, resulting in energy conservation problems. Although clustering is an efficient method for energy saving in network nodes, the existing clustering algorithms are not effective due to the short lifespan of a network, an unbalanced load among the network nodes, and increased end-to-end delays. Hence, this paper proposes a novel cluster-based approach for IoT using a Self-Adaptive Dingo Optimizer with Brownian Motion (SDO-BM) technique to choose the optimal cluster head (CH) considering the various constraints such as energy, distance, delay, overhead, trust, Quality of Service (QoS), and security (high risk, low risk, and medium risk). If the chosen optimal CH is defective, then fault tolerance and energy hole mitigation techniques are used to stabilize the network. Eventually, analysis is done to ensure the progression of the SADO-BM model. The proposed model provides optimal results compared to existing models.
