Energy efficiency is playing major role in the design of a sensor network for improving the network lifetime and the trust is also important for providing the security to the data communication process. Delay is also major challenge today due to the enormous volume of network users. For overcoming all these issues, many researchers have been developed energy efficient security mechanisms for fulfilling the requirements. Even though, they are not able to satisfy the current requirements and users in terms of energy consumption, delay and security. For this purpose, this paper propose a new algorithm called Fuzzy Trust Based Energy Aware Balanced Secure Routing Algorithm (FEBSRA) which is able to provide the effective delay constrained secured routing algorithm which uses the fuzzy logic is a form of many-valued logic in which the truth values of variables may be any real number between 0 and 1 both inclusive for making final decision over sensor nodes with the consideration of number of hops between the source and destination nodes, energy level of the nodes and the trust scores. Moreover, a new trust model is also introduced new formulae for calculating the trust scores with the consideration of energy level of the communication delay which is calculated by using number of hops used for the specific communication. The experimental results of the proposed secured routing algorithm demonstrated that the performance in terms of energy consumption, less delay and high throughput with security is better when compared to the existing systems.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
