Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have become a crucial component of numerous applications, including the military, healthcare, and environmental monitoring. A promising approach to increasing the lifespan of the sensor network is cluster-based WSNs. In WSNs, choosing the best cluster head is a crucial task that has an impact on the network's performance and energy efficiency. There are various issues with current methods for choosing the cluster head, including nodes dying too soon, uneven energy usage, and shorter network lifetimes. Moreover, traditional methods such as Randomized Clustering and Fixed Cluster Head are not effective in prolonging the network lifetime as they do not consider the energy consumption and residual energy of nodes. In this paper, an optimal selection of cluster head is presented where we combine the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Efficient Genetic Algorithm (EGA). Firstly, PSO is used to randomly select the cluster head and update the position of each cluster. Thereafter, EGA invokes its fitness values to select the best cluster head that transmits information to the base station. The simulation result shows that the performance improvement of the proposed method PSO_EGA in terms of network lifetime is 0.10% against Improve Cuckoo Search Algorithm (ICSA) and 0.20% against Hybrid Crow Search Algorithm (HCSA), packet to cluester head is 7% against ICSA and 16% against HCSA, packet to sink is 11% against ICSA and 22% against HCSA and number of alive node is 28% against ICSA and 48% against HCSA. Therefore, our proposed method outperforms ICSA and HCSA in terms of the aforementioned parameters.
