Mobile Sensor Nodes (MSNs) have been recently proposed to leverage the performance of conventional static Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). In this paper, we propose to energize both the sink and Cluster Head nodes with mobility, such that wireless communication path loss is minimized thus preserving the sensor nodes energy and extending the network lifetime. The performance evaluation of the proposed scheme shows a superior performance over other related work in terms of extending the network lifetime, and preserving the nodes energy.
