Multi-hop clustering routing algorithm based on fuzzy inference and multi-path tree by Yanshan Tian, Qingguo Zhou, Fangqin Zhang, Jinjuan Li

“…In this article, we propose a multi-hop clustering routing method with fuzzy inference and multi-path tree. The algorithm identifies the best path from the source node to the destination node by following two steps: (1) dividing the wireless sensor nodes by an efficient clustering routing method and (2) determining the optimal path by a combination of the fuzzy inference approach and multi-path method, taking into account the remaining energy, the minimum hops, and the traffic load of node. …”
