Abstract

This paper presents improvements for the geographic routing protocol Elastic so to support the different sink mobility characteristics. We have proposed a strategy to support multiple mobile sinks; tested Elastic under high speeds of the mobile sink; proposed two strategies in case of the sink temporary absence and finally proposed to predict the sink location by the source node and then by all the nodes. Simulation results show that our propositions improve much the delivery ratio and reduce the delivery delay.
