Abstract
Wireless Sensor Networks are becoming more
prevalent in various industries, including military operations
and distant environmental monitoring. This is important
because sensors are getting smarter, smaller, and less
expensive. The energy hole problem in the WSN has been a
major focus of recent research. The mobile sink is an efficient
solution for the energy hole problem in a wireless sensor
network. A mobile sink gets data from sensors by moving
around the network often to avoid problems with hotspots or
energy holes. It gets data from network nodes by traveling
regularly and visiting a group of nodes known as rendezvous
points (RPs). This research will present a probability-based
RP selection (PRPS) technique for data collection in wireless
sensor networks. To begin, a directed spanning tree is used to
construct a tree that eliminates duplication in the data
forwarding path. The proposed method is employed to
compute the likelihood of RPs. Finally, using the shortest path
technique,
