WSN is a wireless network consists of tiny sensor nodes which are scattered autonomously and capable of sensing physical or environmental conditions the main concern of WSN is energy efficiency. Because the nodes near the sink drain their energy more rapidly than the other nodes in the network. The reason behind this is the data requests are transferred towards the node near to the sink. To triumph over this problem there are numerous approaches are already implemented which aims to reduce the overload of advertising the position of sink node to the network. The reason behind this is the data requests are transferred towards the node near to the sink. To triumph over this problem there are numerous approaches are already implemented which concentrates on reducing the overload of announcement of position of sink to network, by implementing a hierarchy of nodes which assigns different roles on the sensor nodes such as ring nodes and sink node. There are some existing routing protocols which aims to enhance energy efficiency of network but still they have some drawbacks like nodes become hotspots, Packets losses, Delays and energy consumption. So to enhance the routing in efficient manner which will reduce the energy consumption by WSN nodes, introduced Ring Routing protocol is a innovative, scattered and energy-proficient mobile sink routing protocol which is intended for time sensitive application, which aim to lessen these overheads while preserving compensation of mobile sinks. The Ring Routing is hierarchical mobile sink protocol which is based on virtual ring composition which can be easily reconfigurable as well as accessible.
