Enhanced Route Selection (ERS) algorithm for IoT enabled smart waste management system

Abstract Internet of things (IoT) is a promising technology that provides emerging and potential solutions for the modernization of the traditional systems. It enables the notable enhancement in smart home, smart industries, smart cities, smart environment, etc. Particularly smart waste management system plays a vital role in modernization of tradition waste management system in the big cities. Data transmission delay is one of the biggest challenges in wireless sensor networks. To overcome this challenge, we proposed efficient routing technique for smart waste management system using Enhanced Route Selection (ERS) algorithm which will overcome the data communication delay by considering one of the vital QoS parameter end-to-end delay. The proposed method considers the length of the routing path, link reliability, hop count in the path and energy availability. The proposed architecture is simulated in NS3 Tool and it outperforms than existing methods in the related field with respect to the optimization of End-to-Delay, average remaining energy and average energy consumption.
