  • Abstract
    In recent days the advancement in the wireless communication is with that of wireless sensor networks. In Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) the data are collected from many sensor nodes by the base station which is the goal of the network. In this type of WSNs, the major constraints are low energy, limited bandwidth and less memory. With these constraints in mind we propose a method to reduce the energy consumption with maximum data collection. In this new method we use multiple mobile sinks (MMS) instead of a single mobile sink. Here we have considered three scenarios. In the first scenario, all nodes are interested to send data to only one sink. In the second and third scenario all nodes are interested to send the data to any other mobile sink among the selected group of mobile sinks. We have simulated using MATLAB and the simulated results show that the update energy cost is reduced when two or more number of sinks are used.
