In wireless sensor networks (WSN), computational challenges exist in determining a global energy optimized communication routing in large spaced network. WSN challenges can be handled by applying heuristic bio-inspired computational intelligence optimization methods. In WSN, Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH) algorithm is most frequently used hierarchical routing algorithm in spite of certain limitations. The proposed work is addressed in this direction, to improve issues of LEACH, such as identification of reliable CH, selection of energy efficient inter and intra route communication using relay nodes, so as to extend the network lifespan. The proposed work applies Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Wolf Search optimization methods to improve the performance of LEACH algorithm. PSO is castoff for cluster formation and Wolf search for identification of two relay nodes: intra and inter relay node. The Spyder-py3 tool is used to simulate the proposed algorithm: LEACH PSO Wolf search based Optimization (LEACH-PWO). The proposed work compared with original LEACH, power-efficient gathering in sensor information systems, Ant Cuckoo optimized using energy-efficient data aggregation, and Genetic Algorithm data Aggregation LEACH protocols indicate prolonged lifetime of network and increased throughput.
