Summary Machine‐type communication (MTC) such as device‐to‐device and machine‐to‐machine communication is a technology used to realize the concept of Internet of things (IoT). The fifth generation (5G) IoT is composed of large density of wireless sensor device. The massive roll out of the MTC devices is a serious challenge for wireless communication networks from operational and management perspective, including massive access, route selection, energy efficiency and network congestion. Many proposals have been put forward by the research community to cater to the issues and difficulties of massive MTC (mMTC) access in large density sensor network‐enabled IoT communication environment. Recently, data aggregation with efficient route selection has attracted a lot of research attention owing to its robust ability to resolve the above‐mentioned challenges. Existing data routing and aggregation methodologies are not efficient when adopted to heterogeneous IoT applications as they fail to bring trade‐off between energy efficiency and latency minimization. This research work proposes reliable and energy‐efficient route selection (REERS) scheme to reduce energy dissipation and latency for catering both real‐time and non‐real‐time applications. Experiment outcomes shows the REERS schemes achieves much superior performance than existing routing and aggregation methodologies over latency reduction and energy efficiency.
