摘要:With wide range of potential applications Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are booming technologies now a day. WSNs strongly depends on the balance between the energy storage and power consumption, so energy saving is very complicated and critical issue, since sensor nodes are basically energizedby batteries for limited capacity. In sensors nodes radio is the main cause for power consumption, so there should be a limited data transmission/reception. In this paper we proposed a mechanism to reduce power consumption by utilizing RMs in WSNs. In order to represent the mobile devices such as smart phone and laptops we are using term Resourceful Mules (RMs) and energy conservation with assistance of resourceful mules (ECARM), a mechanism that opportunistically utilizes resourceful mules (RMs) such as specifically designed powerful sensors or ubiquitously used laptops, tablet PCs, and smart phones to act as assistants and save energy for WSNs. We emphasize that ECARM can also be applied in duty-cycled WSNs
