Wireless Sensor Networks motes have asmall size, which leads to severe power supplyrestrictions. Much of the work on conserving powerhas been undertaken in the domain of routingprotocols which deals with sending data in anefficient manner. In this paper a new scalar basedprotocol is proposed with a combination of multiplesub-base stations, that seeks to enhance the efficiencyof protocol in terms of consumption of power andnode failure tolerance. All the nodes are divided intoregions, with each region having a sub- basestation(sBS) and an arbitrary scalar value. Each sBShas lesser power supply and computation powercompared to main station, but more of the mentionedmetrics with respect to the sensor motes. Previousstudies have described various paradigms andmetrics for routing protocols and the placement ofbase stations. In this paper, the said algorithm isproposed, and its efficiency is analysed.
