Abstract

A new routing algorithm, RABA, is proposed in this paper. It seeks the shortest path between cluster head and Base Station by Ant Colony Optimization (ACO). The cluster head far away from Base Station transmits message along the shortest path, therefore reducing the transmission path length and lowering the node energy consumption. The simulation compared with LEACH shows that this algorithm can reduce routing length effectively and prolong network lifetime, providing more high quality of service.
