Mamdani Fuzzy Inference Based Hierarchical Cost Effective Routing (MFIHR) in WSNs

Abstract

The cost effective routing is one of major operations in WSNs. The Mamdani fuzzy inference system used to select the chance of a sensor node to become a cluster head (CH) on the basis of input parameter distance and energy of sensor nodes. The heuristic search algorithm A* is used to find the minimum path length from source to sink node. The aggregated data packets are routed from source CH node to sink node on the selected path.
