In this paper, a new congestion control algorithm for Wireless Sensor Networks is proposed. The existing algorithms for this problem have high complexity and power usage due to retransmission with congestion control being carried out by finding the optimal rate through a simple Poisson process. Retransmission of the colliding packets causes wastage of energy since wireless sensor network has limited battery. It has been realized that heuristic based methods offer better rate than the simple Poisson process. Besides, energy of the nodes was not considered in the fitness function of the related algorithms, which can lead to node failure when low energy nodes are used for sending high amount of packets. In order to handle those limitations, we propose a congestion control algorithm based on the multi-objective optimization algorithm named PSOGSA for rate optimization and regulating arrival rate of data from …
