Intelligent energy-aware and secured QoS routing protocol with dynamic mobility estimation for wireless sensor networks

Abstract

In this work, a new protocol is proposed for sender-based responsive techniques on energy, mobility, and effective routing for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). It addresses diverse challenges in packet routing especially, node mobility, energy optimization, and energy balancing in WSNs communication. The proposed protocol improves the basic Quality of Service (QoS) metrics such as Delay, Hop-Count, and Energy Level for each connection with multiple routes and predicts the best optimal path to develop efficient communication among them. It takes energy and performs mobility prediction and the time of connection failures. The main aim of this paper is to propose a secured and energy-efficient routing protocol using fuzzy rules and a node's trust values. Moreover, the proposed model provides an additional route and hence works without link failure. The observational result shows that the proposed protocol performs better than the existing secure routing protocols and achieves a packet delivery ratio of 20% higher than existing approaches. As per energy consumption, the proposed system obtains 15% lesser than recent approaches in secure energy-efficient routing protocols for WSNs.
