Abstract This paper investigates the impact of mobile sink speed on the performance of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Sensor networks are distinguished from traditional networks by characteristics such as deeply embedded routers, highly dynamic networks, resource constrained nodes, frequent topology change and unreliable and asymmetric links. In this paper, we propose a novel, simple and efficient approach to evaluate the ability of data transmission and reception of WSN to or from a mobile sink on the basis of its speed, direction and distance, with regards to the network. Simulation results are given, which show that this approach help evaluate the desired system performance under the dynamically changing network.
