Due to technological advances, the manufacturing of small and low cost of sensors becomes technically and economically feasible. In recent years, an increasing interest in using Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) in various applications, including large scale environment monitoring, battle field surveillance, security management and location tracking. In these applications, hundreds of sensor nodes are left to be unattended to report monitored data to users. Since sensor nodes are placed randomly and sometimes are deployed in underwater. It is impossible to replace batteries often when batteries run out. Therefore, reducing energy consumption is the most important design consideration for sensor networks.
