An Energy-Efficient Ant Routing for the Internet of Things Sensor Networks

Abstract

The Internet of Things sensor networks announces the "things" network of physical objects that are fitted out with sensors, software, and other tools to link and interchange data over the Internet with other devices and systems. The Internet of Things is a system with sensors, base station, gateway and network servers. This system also has an independent mechanism by which any machine can control without any human efforts. IoT built automation has become very sensible, and it has been applied in all the areas such as industrial, vehicle, health care, end-user of electronics, etc. The less significant energy consumption sensors are expected to run independently for long periods. By considering this,so much ongoing researches on executing routing protocols for IoT. Energy perception is a vital part of IoT design problems. Reducing Energy consumption is well-organized as one of the key values in the development of routing protocols for the Internet of things. In this paper, we proposed an Ant system-based energy-efficient manner to select the routing path for the Internet of things and its applications. The Ant Colony Optimization algorithm was named the ant system and it was intended to find the shortest round voyage to tie a sequence of nodes. A real-time putting into practice sensor network using Arduino-based IoT architecture with the ESP8266 module was a design and calculated. To end with, analyze the principles of ant system-based energy-efficient routing protocol and their performance.
