Abstract

In this paper we have devised an energy saving scheme for the mobile sensors in wireless sensor network. Here we uses a proposed technique called Spinal Scheduling (SPS) for power conservation in mobile sensors. Motion less design is a common design because long term motion will consume a lot of energy. Power conservation in mobile sensors can be achieved based on the SPS, in this traffic is only forwarded by spinal sensor nodes, and the rest of the sensor nodes turn off their radios to save energy. Mobile sensors are duty-cycled and have the same working cycle. We define T continuous cycles as a round, where T >1, T is a tuneable parameter. At the beginning of each round, a spinal is selected to work in duty-cycling.
