Ant-Colony Based Double Cluster Heads Adaptive Periodic Threshold-Sensitive Energy Efficient Network Protocol in WSN

Redundancy Control Energy Efficient Clustering (RCEEC) protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks

“…In comparison to APTEEN [20], ADCAPTEEN [21] and AMAPTEEN [22] shows improved node survival rate, less energy loss and good scalability but still it suffers from a lot of overhead in the election process. The work seen so far in literature focuses on optimizing energy levels and enhancing network lifetime.…”

“…However, because of overburdening of CH's, they die prematurely. J. Ma and S. Wang distributed the load of CH's in Adaptive Threshold-sensitive Energy Efficient Network based on ant colony (ADCAPTEEN) [21] and Multiple Adaptive Threshold-sensitive Energy Efficient Network based on Ant-colony (AMAP-TEEN) [22]. The authors suggest using two CHs viz.…”

A Resilient and Scalable novel Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks -Maximum Energy Clustering (MEC)

“…However, in this approach nodes die prematurely because of overburdening of CHs. J. Ma and S. Wang distributed the load of CH's in Adaptive Threshold-sensitive Energy Efficient Network (ADCAPTEEN) [25] and Multiple Adaptive Thresh-old-sensitive Energy Efficient Network based on Ant-colony (AMAP-TEEN) [26]. The authors suggest using two CHs, one master CH (MCH) and one vice CH (VCH) per cluster that will work simultaneously on data gathering, synthesis and communication.…”

“…In comparison to APTEEN [24] its successors, ADCAPTEEN [25] and AMAP-TEEN [26] shows improved node survival rate, less energy loss and good scalability but still they suffer from a lot of overhead and complications in the CH election process. The work seen so far in literature, focuses on optimizing energy levels and enhancing network lifetime.…”
