Many studies have been done to solve the coverage and connectivity problem of the sensor networks with the one-hop neighbor location information. In this paper we propose a simple scheme for the coverage and connectivity problem without any location information. We evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme with analytical models and simulations. The simulation results verify the proposed scheme provides both coverage and connectivity guarantees.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
