N2  - During the last decades, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) arises as an emerging and future enable technology due to the latest development in the field of wireless communication, computing and storage devices. Cluster based routing is an immense solution to enhance the energy efficiency of nodes in wireless sensor networks. In this paper we propose, simulate and authenticate Mobile Data Collector (MDC) based cluster routing protocol for environmental applications, which is based on multi-hop routing strategy, self-organized sensor nodes, distributed cluster formation technique, randomly selection of cluster heads and finally forward the data to base station by the support of maximum residual energy MDC. Moreover, our approach explains the considerable enhancement than LEACH protocol in terms of energy consumption of sensor nodes and overall network lifetime.
