— We consider a network of rechargeable sensors, deployed redundantly in a random sensing environment, and address the problem of how sensor nodes should be activated dynamically...
—Recharging the batteries of a moribund sensor deployed as part of a wireless sensor network is often infeasible due to logistical considerations. With the purpose of prolonging ...
A new sensor network architecture called active sensor network (ASN) is proposed in this paper. By integrating multiple small, sensor network-friendly mobile robots into a traditi...
—Energy harvesting sensor platforms have opened up a new dimension to the design of network protocols. In order to sustain the network operation, the energy consumption rate cann...
Wireless sensor networks consist of sensor nodes which are expected to be battery-powered and are hard to replace or recharge. Thus, reducing the energy consumption of sensor nodes...
