Reduction of interference in multi-channel wireless networks using genetic algorithm

Today, with the advancement of technology and the ease of use of wireless networks, the desire to use these networks in various fields has increased significantly. One of the major challenges in these networks, along with issues such as security and energy consumption, is the simultaneous transmission of data without any interference. Network interference prevents nodes' data from reaching their destination correctly, which causes nodes to resend their data. Re-sending data increases energy consumption and reduces network efficiency since increases in energy consumption cause nodes to break down faster. To overcome this challenge, multi-channeling has been used, which reduces interference. In this paper, we used multi-channeling to send data, also we tried to reduce the number of channels allocated to the network using a genetic algorithm. In fact, in the proposed method, an attempt has been made to minimize interference with the least amount of channels
