Abstract

Energy efficiency and data gathering are the primary goals of wireless sensor networks (WSNs), challenging. Mobile sink and mobile chargers are two promising techniques for data collection by visiting (a set of) sensor nodes and energy replenishment, respectively. These two operations joined in a single mobile element for data gathering and energy replenishment simultaneously to prolong the energy efficiency in WSNs. However, it is challenging to identify the optimal set of anchor points and their visiting order. In this context, this paper proposed an efficient algorithm called Joint Mobile Wireless Energy Transmitter and Data Collector (J-METDC) to mitigate the above-discussed challenges. The J-METDC algorithm uses the Spectral clustering (SC) algorithm to partition the network where the centroid is in the communication range of the mobile element to recharge or data gathering purposes. Next, a cat swarm optimization (CSO) algorithm decides the order of visiting to recharge an SN by trade-offing the available number of packets and residual energy. The SC executes once, whereas the CSO is performed multiple times depending on the request received from any partition. The SC and CSO are lightweight algorithms over the traditional machine learning and swarm intelligence algorithms. So, these two algorithms address the challenge with quick decisions by providing the optimal solution.
