PRMN: Predictive Location Based Routing for Mobile Nodes in Wireless Sensor Network

Wireless sensor network (WSN) compriseslost cost sensors, either static or mobile. Mobility of wireless sensors throws new research challenges to the researchers, particularly in energy consumption and development of routing protocols. This paper attempts to propose a new energy efficient routing technique for the mobile nodes in WSN where every position-aware mobile node predicts its location and sends it to the neighbour nodes within its range and vice-versa. Using this predictive coordinates, every node calculates the distances between neighbor nodes and the base station. Furthermore, it sends the data packet to the node having predictive distance and minimum distance from the base station.
