Energy-Aware Routing Protocol with Fuzzy Logic in Industrial Internet of Things with Blockchain Technology

Algorithm 1

Parent selection algorithm.

Input: parentNodeList

Output: bestPreferredParentNode

1: procedure PARENT SELECTION

2: begin:

3: 

4: for preferredParentNodeId parentNodeList do

5:  rank(particpant)=rank(parentNode)+rankIncrease;

6:  rankIncrease=step + minHopRankIncrease

7:  Create linguistic variable and membership of Load, ETX, and RER

8:  Make fuzzy rule base

9:  Evaluate the generated rules with fuzzy rule base

10:  Perform the defuzzification process

12:  if bestParentNodeRank > preferredParentNodeRank then

13:   bestParentNodeRank=preferredParentRank

14:  end if

15: end for

16: while preferredParentNodeRank == bestParentNodeRank do

17:  participantNodeId=preferredParentNodeId

18: end while

19: Return bestPreferredParentNode

20: end procedure
