Summary: | Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are generally composed of several tiny, inexpensive and self-configured sensor nodes, which are able to communicate with each other via wireless communication devices. The main duty of the nodes is to sense data and transmit to a sink via multi- or single-hop data transmission manners. Since the sensor nodes generally are limited in power resources, they deplete their energy rapidly. In addition, sensor nodes are usually distributed in places, where may be too harsh to be accessible for human. Consequently, exchanging or recharging the power supplies of the sensor nodes is difficult. Therefore, energy efficiency is the most critical issue in design of WSN, which affects the lifetime and performance of the network. Several cluster-based schemes are proposed to enhance the energy efficiency; however, most of them generate sub-optimal clusters without considering both coverage and energy issues simultaneously. Furthermore, several mobility-based schemes are proposed in order to achieve balanced energy consumption through optimizing the sojourn time and sojourn location of Mobile Sinks (MS). Nevertheless, most of them adjust the sojourn time of MS under predictable mobility pattern. Moreover, in most of existing mobility based schemes, time limitation is not considered for optimizing the sojourn location of MS. The aim behind this research is to develop an Energy-efficient Mobile Sink Routing (EMSR) Scheme, which improves the energy efficiency. The EMSR is the incorporation of three schemes: Energyefficient based Unequal-sized Clustering (EUC) mechanism aims to construct the optimal sized clusters, which ensures the energy conservation and coverage preservation. Collaborative Mobile Sink-based Inter-Cluster Routing (CMSICR) mechanism aims to optimize the sojourn time of MS to balance the energy consumption among Cluster Heads (CH). An Energy-efficient Intra-cluster Movement of Mobile Sink (EIM2S) mechanism, which identifies the optimal sojourn locations of the MS within clusters in order to balance the energy consumption among Member Nodes (MN). The EMSR partitions the network field into optimal clusters and employs MSs in order to balance the energy consumption among CHs and MNs. Simulation results show that EMSR achieved improved performance in terms of network lifetime by 51%, total energy consumption by 28% wasted energy by 36% compared to existing schemes. In conclusion, the proposed routing scheme proves to be a viable solution for multi hop cluster based WSN. |
