description Energy efficiency is a key performance metric for ultra-dense wireless sensor networks. In this letter, an unsupervised learning approach for topology control is proposed to prolong the lifetime of ultra-dense wireless sensor networks by balancing energy consumption. By encoding sensors as genes according to the network clusters, the proposed genetic-based algorithm learns an optimum chromosome to construct a close-to-optimum network topology using unsupervised learning in probability. Moreover, it schedules some of the cluster members to sleep to conserve the node energy using geographically adaptive fidelity. Simulation results demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed algorithm by improving energy efficiency in comparison with the state-of-the-art algorithms at an acceptable computational complexity.
