In this work we will develop an extension of one of existing routing algorithm in wireless sensor network. This new adaptation will permit the sensor node to save more energy and transmit images in wireless mode. This situation will be strategic and helpful especially in disaster scenario, where groups of rescuers must be on site to accomplish emergency tasks; therefore it's very important and necessary to establish a wireless communication in real time between individuals or groups. The nature of wireless video sensor network makes it suitable to be used in the context of emergencies because introducing a video give more information in precise time and this is very advantageous when the existing infrastructure is down or severely overloaded. In emergencies the network topology may change rapidly and randomly. The increasing mobility of terminals makes them progressively dependent on their autonomy from the power source. This is illustrated by introducing many mobility models and using many scenarios of mobility in emergency situation, where image transmission via sensor node is used. Low complexity algorithm in image processing in order to reduce time transfer of selected data by this way allows saving energy. Efficiency in emergency scenario is the main objective of this work, achieved by the combination of three strategies: low-power mode algorithm, a power-aware routing strategy and compression technique in image processing used in sensor node. A selected set of simulations studies and real test bed on sensor node platform (Telos-B) indicate a reduction in energy consumption and a significant increase in node lifetime whereas network performance is not affected significantly. This is the big interest of our work in emergency situation, by increasing life time of node, individual can communicate longer and give more chance to rescuers to find them.
