Dimension learning based chimp optimizer for energy efficient wireless sensor networks

Abstract

Wireless sensors are the basic requisite of today’s smart infrastructure based on internet of things (IoTs), 5G and wireless sensor networks (WSNs). WSNs are widely used in industrial applications, precision agriculture and animal tracking systems, environment monitoring, smart grids, energy control systems, smart buildings and entertainment industry etc. The distributed and dynamic scheme of WSNs establishes very unique demands in developing clustering and routing protocols. In order to meet the demand of efficient WSNs, most important requirement is energy management and extension of network lifetime. So energy constraints issue is one of the most emerging area for research to reduce the complexity of network functioning. Due to the complexity of this task we need more robustness optimizer algorithms which can tackle these types of tasks. In this article we are trying to develop one improved version of chimp optimizer for energy constraint issues. In this modification have been integrated the chimp optimizer with dimension learning based hunting (DLH) search technique, known as Improved Chimp Optimizer Algorithm (IChoA). Here the DLH search strategy helps in maintaining diversity and improves the balance between exploitation and exploration. To compute the robustness in solving the optimizer issues, IChoA has been tested on 29-CEC-2017 test suites and energy constraint issues. Experimental solutions obtained by proposed methods are verified with recent methods. All simulation shows that the IChoA method can be most effective in solving the standard complex suites and energy constraint issues.
