Abstract
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) comprise a network of dispersed, carefully positioned sensor nodes in their deployment environment to monitor and collect data on natural phenomena. These sensor nodes collaborate to transmit data via multi-hop communication, ultimately reaching a central base station for processing. However, WSNs face significant challenges due to the resource-constrained nature of these devices and the harsh, open environments in which they operate. Addressing energy optimization and ensuring secure communication are primary concerns in the successful operation of WSNs. This paper introduces anovelTrust aware Neuro Fuzzy Clustering head selection (TNFCH) and agglomerative hierarchical clustering approach (AHC) with Secure Whale Optimization (SWO) Algorithm Routing to enhance energy-efficient transmission in WSNs. Our proposed protocol (TNFCH-AHWO) efficiently organizes nodes by utilizing neural network and Fuzzy logic then securely transfers the data into the communication network. We employ a Trust calculation algorithm in our system to ensure Trust and data integrity, facilitating efficient lightweight operations such as key generation, encryption, decryption, and verification. This ensures hop-to-hop authentication among the nodes in WSNs. To assess the performance of our proposed protocol, we conducted simulations using the NS3 simulator. The findings of the simulation show that the suggested protocol greatly enhances various performance metrics, including energy consumption analysis, throughput, network delay, network lifetime, and packet delivery ratio when compared to existing protocols.
