ENCP: a new Energy-efficient Nonlinear Coverage Control Protocol in mobile sensor networks

Abstract: The node deployment in mobile sensor networks (MSNs) is mostly performed in a random method. However, a large number of redundant nodes may exist due to the randomness. As a result, severe data congestion may be caused and the quality of coverage (QoC) is undermined. In order to solve this QoC problem, we propose an Energy-efficient Nonlinear Coverage Control Protocol (ENCP). This protocol utilizes the normal distribution to calculate the minimal number of sensors which is required to guarantee coverage over t… Show more

“…Network deployment should optimize existing network resources to obtain the highest and longest network life in future applications with its network. In WSNs, nodes have both information collection and information transmission functions, network deployment must meet two aspects: (1) under the premise of ensuring perceptual coverage, communication coverage, and connectivity coverage, the maximum monitoring area should be covered with the fewest sensor nodes (2) On the premise of ensuring the smooth transmission of information and control commands in the network, the delay should be shortened as much as possible to improve the network lifetime. In WSNs, the maximum physical space that each sensor node can sense (the sensing range) is limited.…”

“…At present, the coverage algorithm for static wireless sensor networks is relatively mature, whereas that for moving targets is less developed [2,3]. In practice, wireless sensor networks are mainly used in the dynamic monitoring of sensor nodes about moving targets within a coverage area; examples of such applications include vehicle tracking in military monitoring and wildlife tracking in habitat monitoring [4]. The coverage of a moving target must be capable of effectively aiming at the target perception, location, and tracking, in addition to flexible scheduling of nodes for the moving target at different speeds and different locations.…”
