description The working of the Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystem indeed depends extensively on the mechanisms of real-time data collection, sharing, and automatic operation. Among these fundamentals, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are important for maintaining a countenance with their many distributed Sensor Nodes (SNs), which can sense and transmit environmental data wirelessly. Because WSNs possess advantages for remote data collection, they are severely hampered by constraints imposed by the limited energy capacity of SNs; hence, energy-efficient routing is a pertinent challenge. Therefore, in the case of clustering and routing mechanisms, these two play important roles where clustering is performed to reduce energy consumption and prolong the lifetime of the network, while routing refers to the actual paths for transmission of data. Addressing the limitations witnessed in the conventional IoT-based routing of data, this proposal presents an FL-oriented framework that presents a new energy-efficient routing scheme. Such routing is facilitated by the ADDQL model, which creates smart high-speed routing across changing scenarios in WSNs. The proposed ADDQL-IRHO model has been compared to other existing state-of-the-art algorithms according to multiple performance metrics such as energy consumption, communication delay, temporal complexity, data sum rate, message overhead, and scalability, with extensive experimental evaluation reporting superior performance. This also substantiates the applicability and competitiveness of the framework in variable-serviced IoT-oriented WSNs for next-gen intelligent routing solutions.
