<p>Clustering is used for prolonging the network lifetime in WSN. It groups sensor nodes into different groups and selects a single node as a cluster head (CH) for all the groups. CHS collect the data from consonant clusters and forward the data to base station. In this paper, we proposed path optimization algorithm in Wireless Sensor Network with an obstacle (POAWSNO) that periodically selects the cluster heads according to quality factor. The quality factor is estimated by three criteria including quality of the link, remaining energy and degree of the node. Path optimization technique determines the shortest path during obstacle present in the WSN. POT is used to reduce the hop count and packet delay. The simulation results demonstrate that this approach improves the throughput and reduce the loss of packets and energy consumption in the network using network simulator.</p>
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.
