Abstract
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are ad hoc and self-configuring networks having the possibility that any sensor node can connect or leave the network. With no central controller in WSN, wireless sensor nodes are considered responsible for data routing in the networks. The wireless sensor nodes are very small in size and have limited resources, therefore, it becomes difficult to recharge or replace the battery of the sensor nodes at far places. The present study focused on reducing the battery consumption of the sensor nodes by the deployment of the newly proposed Fault Tolerance Multipath Routing Protocol (MRP-FT) as compared with the existing Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH) protocol under particle swarm optimisation based fault tolerant routing (PSO-FT) technique. The proposed algorithm of MRP-FT-based on the dynamic clustering technique using Boltzmann learning of the neural network and the weights were adjusted according to the area of networks, number of nodes and rounds, the initial energy of nodes (E0), transmission energy of nodes (d
