Abstract: The energy consumption in Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a crucial issue as WSN is a battery-operated network. The energy consumption in WSN can be reduced by using an efficient routing algorithm to route the information to the Base Station (BS). This study designs a routing algorithm that inherits the behavior of Moth and Dolphin to route the information towards BS. The routing algorithm depicts the routing and communication behavior of Moth and Dolphin, respectively to route the data from source to the BS. The performance of Moth-Dolphin routing algorithm has been compared with other three existing state of art algorithms including CCPAR, ACO-MNCC, sleep control based on frog satellite behavior and MFRA by using energy consumption, throughput, network life-time and the delay. The performance evaluation proves the significance of the algorithm as the Moth-Dolphin algorithm enhances the network lifetime with higher throughput as compared to other existing state of art techniques.
