To improve the energy efficiency of the routing protocol in Wireless Sensor Networks using Improved Fuzzy Logic based Effective Clustering protocol (IFLEC) and performance comparison with Fuzzy Logic based Effective Clustering protocol (FLEC). Using novel cluster-head (CH) selection parameters fuzzy based angle between the sensor nodes and the sink, average threshold energy, and probability based average energy in WSN, an improved fuzzy based clustering approach is used to choose the CH to enhance the efficiency of the routing protocol. To measure how well the IFLEC protocol performs, its packet delivery ratio (PDR), energy consumption, lifetime, latency, and throughput characteristics are computed. The simulation output demonstrated that IFLEC protocol outperforms than FLEC protocols in terms of 6.2 % lower energy consumption, 11 % higher lifetime of the network, 2.8% higher PDR, 23% lower delay and 28% higher throughput.
