Abstract

Coverage problems are caused due to the limited communication and sensing range between sensor nodes. The coverage problem casts a result of, how well an area is monitored or tracked by sensors. A good sensor deployment algorithm gives us minimum intersecti on of sensor’s range and maximizes the total area covered by sensors. In the proposed algorithm, we found a fact that homogeneous sensors are deployed which are used for removing the intersection between the sensors, so that, maximum area got covered using the sensor nodes.

Keywords

wireless sensor network, homogeneous sensors, sensor nodes, coverage, deployment.
