Mobile wireless sensor network (MWSN) is an emerging technology, which is an extended form of wireless sensor network (WSN). It is employed in diverse real time applications due to its unique characteristics of self conFigure and mobility. We initiate a novel clustering technique by integrating super cluster head (SCH) concept with MTE protocol in this paper. The SCH are static and highly efficient sensor nodes which are placed inside the network to gather data from CHs. The use of SCH will reduce the distance of data transmission from CHs to BS and thereby increases the energy efficiency. The CHs transmit data to SCH and it will forward the data to BS. The incorporation of SCH with the MTE protocol will further increase the networks performance. The projected method is implemented and the results depicted the superiority of the projected method over another methods.
