Computers are connected through a network. Wireless sensor nodes are used in sensor networks to keep tabs on their surroundings. The building components of a network are sensor nodes. Processors, transceiver and memory are all onboard as well as a power supply. A WSN is a network of devices. Lifespan, data collection, and security are WSN parameters. Wireless sensors' low cost and quick deployment make them ideal for real-time applications. WSN's key problem is long-term energy supply. Energy resource, energy harvesting, topology, and effective routing may extend network lifespan. WSN energy is improved using an efficient manner. The recommended technique relies heavily on grouping and selecting the best possible path. The energy levels of the sensor nodes decide the cluster leader. Chikoo search algorithm selects the best path. This algorithm saves more energy than others. Optimum search ideas identify optimal sink location. Based on the network's energy dissipation and distribution, this technique finds the ideal location for all sinks to improve the network's lifespan and move with intelligent sink placement.
