Mitigate congestion of wireless sensor network using genetic algorithm

الملخص EN

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) are used in many application areas such as industrial and civilian.

Sensors will be shared by multiple applications to collect several types of data.

Not all data be equivalence in the important, some data may be more important than other so loss this data may cause problems.

Packet losses and retransmissions resulting from congestion and cause loss important data and decrease the lifetime of sensor nodes.

This problem need for control to reduce the loss data, energy consuming and etc.

The main aim of this paper is to discuss how can use genetic algorithm (GA) to optimize the parameters that can affect on congestion in WSN and then evaluate the performance of network used AODV, DSDV, DSR and NOAH routing protocols by using NS-2 simulator
