Abstract

The various sensor nodes in a wireless sensor network (WSN) have restricted energy resources which severely affect the long time performance of the network. So, the current research focus is to design energy efficient algorithms for WSNs for improving network lifetime. This paper proposes artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm with a clustering model to improve the energy capability of the network. The ABC algorithm can improve the internal dynamics of the cluster head nodes and sensor nodes in the WSN. The proposed algorithm can reduce the energy dissipation of nodes, balance the energy consumption across nodes and maximize the lifetime of the network. The ABC algorithm has less number of control parameters in the objective function compared to other algorithms, so it is simple to implement in clustered sensor network. The simulation results prove the superiority of the ABC algorithm compared to other algorithms in maximizing the energy efficiency and longevity of the network.
