SummaryDeploying a wireless sensor network (WSN) for accessing the network of distant environments is more crucial. Node defect detection is a core technology of WSN and is essential for most WSN networks. The defective node reduces the overall service quality (OSQ) of the global WSN network system. Therefore, a type II fuzzy inference system (T2_FIS) is proposed for detecting defective nodes in the WSN network. The adaptive genetic algorithm (AGA) and proposed method are introduced for tuning the parameters in the T2_FIS system. The proposed T2_FIS method effectively detects the broken node in the WSN network using the fuzzy rules. In addition, the improved Mud Ring (IMR) optimization algorithm is proposed to replace the faulty node with the neighborhood node in the network. The defective nodes are identified and replaced with the closest nodes based on the membership function (MF) generated by the T2_FIS. Furthermore, the lifetime and throughput of the WSN network are increased by minimizing energy consumption. The overall performance is evaluated using the MATLAB tool, and the implementation results are compared with the existing methods. The total energy consumption for the proposed method is 50.451, with a throughput and lifetime of 153.657 and 22979.25. Furthermore, the performance metrics for the existing and proposed strategies are analyzed, and the accuracy of the proposed method is proven to be 99.3827%, the false alarm rate (FAR) is 0.0008, and the false positive rate (FPR) is 0.0617. The results show the effectiveness and performance of the proposed method.
