Abstract- The increase in the demand for wireless sensor networks has intensified studies which aim to obtain energy efficient solutions using backbone networks. But the backbone networks are very susceptible due to various reasons and posses the grand challenge in efficient wireless communication. Hence the new design scheme of energy efficient virtual backbone path

backbone formation and transmission of events through it overcomes these problems. The connected dominating set algorithms are the abstraction for the formation of virtual backbone networks [2]. A Dominating sets are a compartment of nodes in the set of connections where each node is whichever in the compartment or a neighbor of sensible nodes in the compartment. The Marking process, Self pruning rules and Rule k are the connected dominating set algorithms for constructing backbones [6].

transmission with condense in message overhead to extend the lifetime is used for wireless sensor network. Here the virtual backbones are constructed using connected dominating set and these backbones are used to create path for transmission in wireless sensor network. Keywords- wireless sensor network, virtual backbone, connected dominating set, virtual backbone path transmission.

However single backbone does not prolong the lifetime of the wireless sensor network, to prolong the network lifetime

I. INTRODUCTION Due to many potential applications of wireless sensor network in various areas, they have drawn lots of attention from the last two decades. In wireless sensor network due to fading and nodes failures the network topology frequently changes [1]. Transmission power is generally low in sensor nodes and multihop routing is the way of communication between sensor nodes. Lack of fixed topology in wireless sensor network leads to routing problem one of the most challenging issue. The virtual

multiple disjoint connected dominating sets are constructed. This problem was studied in [4]. The proposed design scheme balance the energy in the network by improving the lifetime of the network. Our proposed design scheme motivation is to achieve a longer lifetime for the network by using virtual backbone path transmission in a wireless sensor network.

II. SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE The system architecture of the proposed scheme is shown in below Fig. 1 B. Description of our proposed system architecture The sensor network module is formed by considering the network parameters such as the sensor nodes and communication range. In the sensor network there is only one

sink, which is always active and has an infinite power supply and this is considered as destination. The remaining sensor nodes forward their message to the neighbor virtual backbone nodes; finally the event is received at the sink. The virtual backbone network module consists of the formation of virtual backbone network by using the connected dominating set [5]. A virtual backbone is comprised of set of

Some sensor nodes are selected for dominating set and nodes in the dominating set are connected to form connected dominating set, this is used as a virtual backbone path and this path is used for transmission of

III. DESIGN LAYOUT The system flow is shown in the Fig. 2 and described as follows: The design layout mainly consists of the following steps Step1: Create wireless sensor network with preconfigured number of nodes and communication range. Step5: Any node detects event should send data to virtual Step3: If remaining energy of the sensor node is lower. Step4: Then it filters less energy nodes to create virtual backbone path Step2: At the commencement of each round the sensible nodes in the wireless sensor network are assigned with initial energy.
