Bacterial Foraging Algorithm to Find Optimal Cluster Head in Sensor Network

ABSTRACT: Recently, different methods have been developed for smart calculations and Metaheuristics. The present study introduces bacterial foraging methods to find optimal cluster-head in a sensor network. Considering a sensor as a bacterium, the method track a target by identifying its path when target enters a battlefield or frontier area; by regulating energy between sensors (routing algorithm), then, it reports target to the database.
