ABSTRACT

Level routing LEACH protocol has uneven cluster head distribution, and each cluster head rotation takes place throughout the network, which will cause excessive energy consumption. However, the application of ant colony algorithm in multi-hop routing still has the problem of unbalanced energy consumption. By dividing the network nodes into regions, we can use the residual energy of the nodes as a reference factor to improve the method. By introducing node energy into transfer probability, this paper improves ant colony routing algorithm. The simulation results show that the improved algorithm can overcome the shortcomings of classical ant colony algorithm, which will achieve efficient and real-time optimal routing.
