This paper presents a fair comparison of Low energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH) and ant colony applied on LEACH on the basis of the death of first node in the wireless sensor network (WSN) and data transfer. The simulation results show that when the ant colony algorithm is applied on the existing LEACH protocol the results show significant improvement in the network lifetime by delaying the death of first node in the WSN and thus increasing the efficiency of the system.
