Routing Towards A Mobile Sink Using Virtual Coordinates In A Wireless Sensor Network

Abstract

Geographical routing can provide significant advantages in wireless sensor networks. However in many sensor networks, it is difficult or costly to find the exact location of the nodes. The virtual coordinate techniques allow a network to acquire a coordinate system without relying on geographical location. In this paper, we describe MS-DVCR, an extension of a state-of-the-art virtual coordinate routing protocol (DVCR) with the ability to route towards a mobile sink. We describe the design principles and implementation of the proposed protocol and through an experimental study, we show that it matches the performance of a simple extension of DVCR for mobile sinks while providing a significantly lower energy consumption. © 2014 IEEE.
