Abstract. Recent researches on energy efficient coverage configuration in wireless sensor networks mainly address the goal of 100% or near 100% coverage preserving. However, we fin...
Abstract—Coverage problem is a fundamental issue in wireless ad hoc and sensor networks. Previous techniques for coverage scheduling often require accurate location information o...
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been increasingly available for critical applications such as security surveillance and environmental monitoring. An important performance mea...
—Many wireless sensor networks require sufficient sensing coverage over long periods of time. To conserve energy, a coverage maintenance protocol achieves desired coverage by act...
