Abstract

We formulate a non linear optimization problem to find the optimal sink node position for a given wireless sensor networks (WSN) region where sensor nodes generate different amounts of data to send to the sink node [1]. The problem is NP-hard in general and we use the particle swarm optimization technique to solve the optimization problem [2].
