Fractional lion optimization for cluster head-based routing protocol in wireless sensor network

Abstract Due to the hopeful application of gathering information from unreachable position, wireless sensor network creates an immense challenge for data routing to maximize the communication with more energy efficiency. In order to design the energy efficient routing, the optimization based clustering protocols are more preferred in wireless sensor network. In this paper, we have proposed competent optimization based algorithm called Fractional lion (FLION) clustering algorithm for creating the energy efficient routing path. Here, the proposed clustering algorithm is used to increase the energy and lifetime of the network nodes by selecting the rapid cluster head. In addition, we have proposed multi-objective FLION clustering algorithm to develop the new fitness function based on the five objectives like intra-cluster distance, inter-cluster distance, cluster head energy, normal nodes energy and delay. Here, the proposed fitness function is used to find the rapid cluster centroid for an efficient routing path. Finally, the performance of the proposed clustering algorithm is compared with the existing clustering algorithms such as low energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH), particle swarm optimization (PSO), artificial bee colony (ABC) and Fractional ABC clustering algorithm. The results proved that the lifetime of the wireless sensor nodes is maximized by the proposed FLION based multi-objective clustering algorithm as compared with existing protocols.
