Abstract
Wireless Sensor Network Lifetime improvement is very well demonstrated using sink mobility effectively in the literature. The challenge taken up in the past research was to identify the shortest route that avoids obstacles and delivers the mobile sinks at the designated nodes. In this paper, we present a cluster-based approach for collecting the data and a heuristic algorithm for a well-planned work. The routing protocols may differ from application to application, due to a large number of sensor nodes the algorithm should be studied in a novel way. In this method, the nodes known as cluster heads collect information from different cluster points and sends data to the mobile sink following this clustering process. We also propose an energy-efficient data gathering algorithm for the collection of mobile sinks. Simulations were conducted using NS2 software to verify the efficiency of the proposed algorithm.
