Improved Ant Colony Algorithm and its Application on the Routing Selection of Stable Clusters in Wireless Sensor Networks

Article Preview

Abstract:

Aiming at the shortcomings of slow convergence speed and instable optimal routing which will occur when ant colony algorithm is applied in wireless sensor networks, an improved algorithm is proposed in this paper, which can be used to optimize cluster heads number, cluster unequally and keep the majorizing clusters stable. In addition, the improved ant colony algorithm is used for routing in the majorizing cluster. Simulation experiments show that the stable cluster colony algorithm is useful in reducing the energy consumption and improving the speed of data package transmission.
