Impact of Evaporation on the Performance of Ant Colony Optimization-Based Routing Protocols on the Wireless Sensor Network

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) has the characteristics limited computing, memory and energy, so a routing protocol that supports WSN network performance is needed. Routing protocols based Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) are very suitable for use in data packets. In this report, we will try out several kinds of parameter values bear on pheromone evaporation (ρ) ACO algorithms applied to with grid topology number nodes variables network. Where can increase delivery packets busy each node transmits packet continuously. From results, value ρ 0.75 makes 12 30 good terms packet, but 70 0.70 better than side.
