Abstract: The disseminated and shared environment of WSNs causes many challenges to offer security in network. A malevolent sensor node induces lot of packet losses, energy wastage and enhance in time to attain receiver. In this study, we investigate the dynamic trust factor based energy efficient relay node selection in heterogeneous WSNs. Here, the DTF calculation based on the node energy, average trust and hop count. This scheme used to increase both the network performance and lifetime in the network. The simulation results shows that the proposed scheme to increase the data received rate and reduce both the packet loss rate and energy utilization in the network.
