description | Over the last few years, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), also called drones, have attracted considerable interest in the academic field and exploration in the research field of wireless sensor networks (WSN). Furthermore, the application of drones aided operations related to the agriculture industry, smart Internet of things (IoT), and military support. Now, the usage of drone-based IoT, also called Internet of drones (IoD), and their techniques and design challenges are being investigated by researchers globally. Clustering and routing aid to maximize the throughput, reducing routing, and overhead, and making the network more scalable. Since the cluster network used in a UAV adopts an open transmission method, it exposes a large surface to adversaries that pose considerable network security problems to drone technology. This study develops a new dwarf mongoose optimization-based secure clustering with a multi-hop routing scheme (DMOSC-MHRS) in the IoD environment. The goal of the DMOSC-MHRS technique involves the selection of cluster heads (CH) and optimal routes to a destination. In the presented DMOSC-MHRS technique, a new DMOSC technique is utilized to choose CHs and create clusters. A fitness function involving trust as a major factor is included to accomplish security. Besides, the DMOSC-MHRS technique designs a wild horse optimization-based multi-hop routing (WHOMHR) scheme for the optimal route selection process. To demonstrate the enhanced performance of the DMOSC-MHRS model, a comprehensive experimental assessment is made. An extensive comparison study demonstrates the better performance of the DMOSC-MHRS model over other approaches. |
