What is it about?
Energy efficiency is a major factor in designing wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Clustering design and grid-based scheme are ones of the techniques to save energy in WSNs. However, for a mobile sink in WSNs, packet loss rate that occurs due to the sink mobility is also a significant challenge. In this paper, an enhanced Routing-Gi protocol for a mobile sink in WSNs has been proposed to not only enhance energy efficiency but also minimize the packet loss rate. Simulation results show that the proposed protocol is more efficient than the previous protocols in terms of the network lifespan, energy efficiency, and packet delivery ratio. Thus, the proposed approach in this work could further be adapted to investigate highly mobility of sink in WSNs.

Perspectives
The objective of this paper is not only to maximize the network lifetime of WSNs with adaptive sink mobility but also to minimize the packet loss rate in given network. Orientations of future work include the performance evaluation of our proposed with mobile nodes, the reinforcement of this proposed in terms of efficiency and optimality, and the comparison of other
