Single-Sink Mobility Performance Analysis on a Wireless Senosr Networks

The positioning of the sensors in the query-based Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) has an impact on its energy Efficiency. This work, presents two pre-defined sensor arrangements in order to measure the magnitude of this impact, concerning energy consumption, successful queries and round-trip time delay in each query on a single-sink WSN. Predefined positions developed for querying entity (single-sink) against variable event locations in a flat, and obstacle free rectangular field. The simulation results confirm that positioning strategy of the single sink node offers a significant Energy consumption performance gain with different response time.
