A greedy heuristic protocol for data collection using mobile base station in wireless sensor network

A Joint Optimization Algorithm for Trajectory Planning and Resource Allocation of Vehicle Mobile Base Stations for On-Demand Coverage Networks

“…From the perspective of UAVs, their flight distance is restricted by battery endurance, and severe weather conditions, such as strong winds, rain, and snow, pose potential threats to their operations [11]. On the contrary, terrestrial vehicle-mounted mBSs are playing an increasingly important role in various existing networks [12][13][14][15][16][17][18]. For instance, Ref.…”

“…In this regard, Ref. [14] presents the greedy heuristic protocol for data collection, termed GHPDC, which selects energy-rich spots for the mBS to occupy. In response to surges of traffic within shopping centers, Ref.…”
