In Mobile WSNs (MWSNs) , disjoint clusters could be naturally formed in an unpredictable way that possess the nature of highly dynamic connected and disconnected schema. Many partitions of the network could happen in disjoint mobile wireless sensor networks (DMWSNs), and could last for a significant amount of time that can challenge current routing protocols in crisis-driven and geography-driven applications. We propose in this paper, two new centralized and distributed routing discovery protocols for DMWSN. In the centralized protocol, the static sink controls the motion of mobile sinks. In the distributed protocol, each mobile sink is responsible for collecting data in a specific region. In our work, the mobile sinks need to coordinate among themselves for communication with the base station (BS). The simulation results shows the advantage of our newly proposed protocols in terms of time delay, energy consumed, and the delivery ratio.
