There are many nodes in a distributed environment that make up a wireless sensor network, and each node is able to perform reconfiguration tasks to fulfill user requests. Small-scale and remote locations are where sensor networks are implemented. So, the primary WSN problem becomes power consumption. The data sent by numerous sensor nodes is received by the sink node. The decision-making process is carried out after the similarity between the data from distinct sensor nodes is identified and eliminated. Additionally, the sink distributes acquired data locally and sends that data to distantly conducted networks. The currently conducted research makes use of VGDRA, an energy-efficient procedure that can lengthen WSN. The two-level hierarchies of the VGDRA protocol are designed to reduce energy usage in wireless sensor networks. The CHs are chosen using the VGDRA procedure based on their location and energy. The goal of this research is to improve the VGDRA routing algorithm in order to increase the network’s lifespan.
