Fuzzy Rule-Based System for Route Selection in WSN Using Quadratic Programming

Wireless sensor network (WSN) is a part of wireless network which has flexible and dynamic nature in context of real-life applications. It has several usages in terms of user requirements. It consists of several nodes having limited energy capacity. Energy capacity of the nodes does not completely fulfil the requirement of the services. During transaction or transmission, data is dropped and fails to reach the destination node or base station (BS). This BS also suffers several types of difficulties for sending or receiving data packets. So, there is need of some techniques or modelling that help to protect this issue. Apart from energy, distance is also one important parameter for transmitting data successfully. Although energy is the crucial parameter, but, combination of both energy and distance plays an important role for managing efficient route of the network. The proposed method is the combination of intelligent technique as well as mathematical modelling that uses fuzzy logic as an intelligent technique and quadratic programming as a mathematical modelling for solving the proposed goal. The combination of both provides a robustness technique that uses two basic parameters, energy and distance, for selecting optimal route of the WSN. The proposed method is validated in LINGO optimization software for formulating and validating the model efficiently.
