Abstract: The wireless sensor network (WSN) is a resource-constrained network type with two important challenges: energy consumption and network management. The goal of our design is to research and develop the WSN routing protocol, which is based on clusters and Open Flow controllers, in order to improve overall network performance. The results reveal that the proposed protocol is extensible and substantially more streamlined than standard soft computing-based implementations. These developments enable sensor networks to have a higher level of flexibility and programmability when placing sensors to the target. Our simulation results demonstrate that SDN extends network life by 20% when compared to traditional clustered-based routing by sending fewer control messages and using less processing resources once the initial processing is complete. The controller performs route computations rather than usual routing sensor nodes, which saves energy and extends the network's total lifetime.
