The primary objective of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is to collect data from physical environment.Transmission of data to longer distance consumes more energy, increases the interference and that minimizes the network life time and throughput.In order to overcome this problem we proposed zone based energy efficient mobile data collector for WSN.This technique maintains energy variance level minimum among all nodes by selecting precise and equal sized hop length.Here all nodes transmit data up to specified optimal hop length distance.In proposed algorithm each node requires constant power for transmission and energy discharge is uniform that enhances the network life time.This technique involves zone head and associate zone head in which, the zone head uploads data to mobile data collector, in turn associate zone head acts as zone head and collects data form sensor nodes.Our simulation results shows that ZEMDC provides better performance when compare with other state of art works.
