MOBILE SINK PATH FORMATION TO EXTEND THE NETWORK LIFETIME IN WSN

Abstract

: Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a group of sensor nodes that is utilized to observe and record the several physical, environmental, and significant real time data.Data traffic obtained through the Base Station (BS) in WSN minimizes the energy of close sensor nodes as equated to other sensor nodes. This issue is called as hot spot issue in the WSN. But, the Mobile Sink (MS) is proposed for solving this hot spot issue in the WSN. MS is used to gather the modified information from the Cluster Head (CH) and it forward to the BS. This approach presents a Mobile Sink Path Estimation (MSPE) to extend the network lifetime in WSN. The major objective of this article is to designing a MS route to minimizing the energy utilization and delay. In this approach each CH has a threshold level of the load ahead of that if there is an inflow of data, then the node routinely forwards an Mobile Sink Route Request (MS_REQ) for assist from the MS. Depend on the requests received from all CH nodes; the MS evaluates the most appropriate region to move other position. We examine the function of MSPE approach by applying Network simulator. Simulation results demonstrate that the introduced MSPE approach has enhanced the residual energy and minimized the network delay.
