Abstract

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) consist of small, irreplaceable batteries that are able to detect, collect and transmit data. Sink node mobility is an efficient approach to improving the lifetime of the network to reduce overhead signaling and achieve a high packet delivery ratio. The use of energy is the large number of WSNs, there are so many routing algorithms and for the energy consuming problem, routing protocols are developed. It focuses on sink mobility and routing protocols, which may differ depending on the architecture of the application and network. The state of the art of sink mobility in WSNs is presented as a survey with routing protocols. The challenges in the design of the protocols are presented and the comparison of the latest routing protocols supported by mobile sinks is also described and the other issues also listed in WSNs are discussed, followed by the conclusion.
