Abstract - Artificial bee colony algorithm could be a good
optimization algorithm supported the bee's acquisition
model. This review proposed a comprehensive study in
wireless sensor networks (WSN) using an artificial bee

bees' algorithm with testing on optimization problems. The
results of various algorithms shown that the algorithm
proved to be effective to improve the search performance
and advanced optimization problem.
1. Introduction
In recent years an efficient design of a Wireless Sensor
Network has become a leading area of research. A Sensor is a
device that responds and detects some type of input from
both the physical or environmental conditions, such as
pressure, heat, light, etc. The output of the sensor is
generally an electrical signal that is transmitted to a
controller for further processing.
1.1 Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN)
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) are intended for
monitoring an environment. The main task of a wireless
sensor node is to sense and collect data from a certain
domain, process them and transmit it to the sink where the
application lies[1].In the wireless sensor networks, the
queue mechanism is adopted which is used for the
transmission of the data packets. If heavy traffic load
condition occurs, then queue handling capacity of the sensor
node is not efficient which may cause a data queue overflow
in the sensor nodes, lost. So that efficiency and reliability in
the transmission of data cannot be obtained. The sensor
nodes create the energy hole in the routing path, this is then
created by multiple hops operation which is based on
relaying the data packets [2]. Because of this energy holes,
the lifetime of the wireless sensor networks is greatly
reduced. Wireless sensor networks can be used for many
mission-critical applications such as target tracking in
battlefields and emergency response. In these applications,
the reliable and timely delivery of sensory data plays a
crucial role in the success of the mission.[1] The major
problem with wireless sensor networks is their limited
source of energy, the coverage constraint, and high traffic
load. Routing of sensor data has been one of the challenging
areas in wireless sensor network research.[2]
1.2 Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs)
A Wireless sensor network can be defined as a network of
devices that can communicate the information gathered
from a monitored field through wireless links. The data is
forwarded through multiple nodes, and with a gateway, the
data is connected to other networks like wireless Ethernet.
WSN is a wireless network that consists of base stations and
numbers of nodes (wireless sensors). These networks are
used to monitor physical or environmental conditions like
sound, pressure, temperature and co-operatively pass data
through the network to the main location.
1.3 WSN Network Topologies
For radio communication networks, the structure of a WSN
includes various topologies like the ones given below
Star Topologies
Star topology is a communication topology, where each node
connects directly to a gateway. A single gateway can send or
receive a message to several remote nodes. In star
topologies, the nodes are not permitted to send messages to
each other. This allows low-latency communications
between the remote node and the gateway (base station).
Due to its dependency on a single node to manage the
network, the gateway must be within the radio transmission
range of all the individual nodes. The advantage includes the
ability to keep the remote nodes' power consumption to a
minimum and simply under control. The size of the network
depends on the number of connections made to the hub.
Tree Topologies
Tree topology is also called as a cascaded star topology. In
tree topologies, each node connects to a node that is placed
higher in the tree, and then to the gateway. The main
advantage of the tree topology is that the expansion of a
network can be easily possible, and also error detection
becomes easy. The disadvantage with this network is that it
relies heavily on the bus cable; if it breaks, all the network
will collapse.
Mesh Topologies
The Mesh topologies allow transmission of data from one
node to another, which is within its radio transmission
range. If a node wants to send a message to another node,
which is out of the radio communication range, it needs an
