Due to the resource constraint and dynamic parameters, reducing energy consumption became the most important issues of wireless sensor networks topology design. All proposed hierarchy methods cluster a WSN in different cluster layers in one step of evolutionary algorithm usage with complicated parameters which may lead to reducing efficiency and performance. In fact, in WSNs topology, increasing a layer of cluster is a tradeoff between time complexity and energy efficiency. In this study, regarding the most important WSN’s design parameters, a novel dynamic multilayer hierarchy clustering approach using evolutionary algorithms for densely deployed WSN is proposed. Different evolutionary algorithms such as Genetic Algorithm (GA), Imperialist Competitive Algorithm (ICA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) are used to find an efficient evolutionary algorithm for implementation of the clustering proposed method. The obtained results demonstrate the PSO performance is more efficient compared with other algorithms to provide max network coverage, efficient cluster formation and network traffic reduction. The simulation results of multilayer WSN clustering design through PSO algorithm show that this novel approach reduces the energy communication significantly and increases lifetime of network up to 2.29 times with providing full network coverage (100%) till 350 rounds (56% of network lifetime) compared with WEEC and LEACH-ICA clsutering.

The human has always been to find the best in all things. This Perfectionism has led to the creation of optimization methods. The goal of optimization is to determine the variables and find the best acceptable answer Due to the limitations of the problem, So that the objective function is minimum or maximum. One of the ways inaccurate optimization is meta-heuristics so that Inspired by nature, usually are looking for the optimal solution. in recent years, much effort has been done to improve or create metaheuristic algorithms. One of the ways to make improvements in meta-heuristic methods is using of combination. In this paper, a hybrid optimization algorithm based on imperialist competitive algorithm is presented. The used ideas are: assimilation operation with a variable parameter and the war function that is based on mathematical model of war in the real world. These changes led to increase the speed find the global optimum and reduce the search steps is in contrast with other metaheuristic. So that the evaluations done more than 80% of the test cases, in comparison to Imperialist Competitive Algorithm, Social Based Algorithm , Cuckoo Optimization Algorithm and Genetic Algorithm, the proposed algorithm was superior.
