Abstract

WSNs is evolving different kinds of networks depending on different circumstances, among those we have HWSNs (Hybrid Wireless Sensor Networks) which invokes sensor nodes mobility. In hybrid wireless sensor networks (HWSNs), reducing energy consumption of resource constrained and adaptability to the sensors nodes motion are the crucial problems; to overcome this we need a scalable MAC protocol. Many MAC protocols have been proposed by different researchers, but in this paper we propose LMAC because it outperforms S-MAC, T-MAC and D-MAC protocols comparing to its improvement of energy efficiency and mobile adaptability.
