Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) support intelligent data acquisition systems across environmental monitoring, industrial automation, and smart cities. As a fundamental enabler of the Internet of Things (IoT), WSNs rely heavily on battery-powered sensor nodes for sustained operation in dynamic and often remote environments. However, predicting battery lifetime in WSNs remains a critical challenge due to the complex interplay between environmental conditions and operational behaviors. Conventional energy models often fail to consider the simultaneous influence of temperature, humidity, and data traffic intensity on battery depletion rates. This study proposes a battery lifetime prediction model based on a Markov framework integrated with an exponential energy consumption function to address this issue. The model incorporates three primary variables—ambient temperature, relative humidity, and data movement to simulate energy usage dynamically. The framework calculates transition probabilities and energy load based on environmental states, enabling accurate forecasting. Additionally, the model evaluates the impact of different battery chemistries (Ni-MH, LiPo, Li-ion, and Alkaline) on lifespan performance across varying environmental scenarios. Simulation results reveal that temperature and humidity significantly influence energy depletion, while data transmission intensity plays a supporting role in high-traffic cases. LiPo and Li-ion batteries demonstrate superior performance and stability, especially under extreme environmental conditions. This study contributes a novel multi-variable model that bridges physical sensing environments with predictive battery analytics. The findings provide a foundation for strategic energy planning and adaptive deployment of WSNs in sustainability-critical applications.
