Ant Colony and Tolerable Delay Based Modified Virtual Backoff Algorithm for Wireless Sensor Networks
Journal Title: International Journal of Intelligent Engineering and Systems - Year 2017, Vol 10, Issue 2
Abstract
The MAC layer plays a major role in the enhancement of the performance of any network. Hence this paper proposes a modified virtual backoff algorithm which queues the packets based on the delay that application can tolerate and ant colony optimization technique is used to choose the best of all available forwarding nodes. Two counter referred as Naccess and Nattempt are maintained for each node which is used to calculate the success rate of each node based on which the node is given the channel access of all contending nodes. Sleep scheduling is incorporated in order to enhance the energy conservation and hence increase the lifetime of the network. The performance of the proposed algorithm is proved to be better when compared to the legacy systems like VBA, S-MAC and EACAODV. The parameters used for testing are packet delivery ratio, average energy consumption, delay and number of collisions.
