Abstract

In the process of power grid monitoring, image data are mostly transmitted in segments by wireless image sensor networks (WISNs), and the external attacks or interference on a communication link easily causes the data to be retransmitted. Therefore, high quality of service (QoS) routing is essential to the secure and robust operation of the WISNs. Specifically, the QoS routing optimization in WISN is a nondeterministic polynomial hard problem, which usually cannot be solved by ordinary algorithms. Based on this motivation, a novel heuristic trust scheme (i.e., multi-objective trust routing scheme based on cloned elite slime mould algorithm (CESMA-MTRS)) is proposed to greatly improve the security and QoS of WISN. The scheme designs a novel trust difference test mechanism to enhance the identification of malicious nodes. Furthermore, a new elite archiving strategy and clone optimization strategy are designed to improve the convergence speed of grid monitoring data transmission routing search. The simulation results show that when the network scale is 100 and the attacked node scale is 30%, CESMA-MTRS reduces the delay by 8% and 15% and the packet loss rate by 24% and 27%, respectively, compared with trust-based routing protocol called the On-demand trust-based multicast routing protocol (ODTMRP) and evolutionary selfcooperative trust approach.
