Weather Monitoring, surveillance of enemy vehicles, sensed data delivery are few of the applications of Wireless Sensor Networks. All the applications want the nodes to spend their energy in the critical activities. Lifetime depends on the residual energy of the nodes in the network. In this work we modify the Global Energy Balance [1] algorithms to have better network lifetime by making use of fixed relay nodes at various positions in the network. The selection of relay node is based on the distance and residual energy of the relay node all through the route discovery practice. The FRNS scheme is compared with existing algorithms for diverse parameters like End to End Delay, Overall Hops Count, Overall Alive nodes and Dead nodes, Residual energy, Lifetime ratio, Energy Consumption, Throughput and Routing Overhead.
