After the diversification of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) applications, the need for the most agile communication that can suit the current requirement and scenario is the trend. A number of methodologies to increase the efficiency of communication exist in the literature; however, this is the first attempt to design an agile communication strategy. This paper proposes a predictive re-alignment strategy to facilitate agile communication in the WSNs, where the nodes are capable of small mobility to re-align themselves while communication is on. The standard protocol used to compare the proposed Predictive Re-alignment Strategy (PRS) is Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector Routing (AODV). Simulations show that the PRS has increased the overall network performance by 78%.
