  Abstract

Due to the application-specific nature of wireless sensor networks, the sensitivity to such a requirement as data reporting latency may vary depending on the type of applications. thus requiring application-specific algorithm and protocol design paradigms which help us to maximize energy conservation and thus the network lifetime. In this paper, we implement and evaluate a novel delay-adaptive sensor scheduling scheme for energy-saving data gathering which is based on a two phase clustering (TPC), in wireless sensor networks. The TPC is implemented on sensor Mote hardwares. With the help of TPC implemented, sensors selectively use direct links for control and forwarding time critical sensed data and relay links for data forwarding based on the user delay constraints given, Implementation study shows that TPC helps the sensors to increase a significant amount of energy while collecting sensed data from sensors in a real environment.
