RETRACTED ARTICLE: Real-time hook selection: a soft computing enabled future location protection mechanism in WSN using LTR measures and random seeding approach

Abstract

The problem of location protection has been well studied in recent research articles, and a number of approaches are prescribed for the development of Quality of Service in Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). However, the previous approaches failed to achieve higher performance toward location protection which led to deficiency in the quality of service of WSN. To overcome the deficiency in location protection, an efficient real-time hook selection algorithm based on Latency Throughput Retransmission measure has been presented. First, this method monitors the quality of service parameters like latency, throughput and retransmission. Based on the information collected, the method identifies the list of routes being used to perform data transmission. For each route, the method estimates the latency support, throughput support and retransmission frequency support. Based on the measures estimated, the method computes a transmission support measure to perform route selection. Similarly, the method performs hook selection based on the location of suspected adversary. The newly selected hook will be just around the eccentric of old one. The proposed algorithm improves the performance of location protection as well as the entire network.
