Abstract: In past growing of WSN, there are so many algorithms for energy efficient routing have been developed. However, one challenge in WSN is how to address the hot spot problem since nodes close to base station (static since) trend to die earlier than other nodes. Mobile sink node can address this problem since sink node can go along certain transmission causing hot spot nodes are more evenly distributed. In this paper, the energy efficient routing technique with multiple mobile sinks support is focused. The network is divided into several clusters and the influence of mobile sink nodes or number on network lifetime is studied. Simulation results are shown that the good network performance happens when mobile sink number is more than 3 under simulation environment.
Keywords: Sink node, Energy, Cluster and Sensor.
