Improving network lifetime using sensors with adjustable sensing ranges
This paper addresses the target coverage problem in wireless sensor networks with adjustable sensing range. Communication and sensing consume energy, therefore efficient power management can extend network lifetime. In this paper, we consider a large number of sensors with adjustable sensing range that are randomly deployed to monitor a number of targets. Since targets are redundantly covered b...
متن کاملMaximizing Network Lifetime on the Line with Adjustable Sensing Ranges
Given n sensors on a line, each of which is equipped with a unit battery charge and an adjustable sensing radius, what schedule will maximize the lifetime of a network that covers the entire line? Trivially, any reasonable algorithm is at least a 1 2 -approximation, but we prove tighter bounds for several natural algorithms. We focus on developing a linear time algorithm that maximizes the expe...
متن کاملExact and heuristic methods to maximize network lifetime in wireless sensor networks with adjustable sensing ranges
Wireless sensor networks involve many different real-world contexts, such as monitoring and control tasks for traffic, surveillance, military and environmental applications, among others. Usually, these applications consider the use of a large number of low-cost sensing devices to monitor the activities occurring in a certain set of target locations. We want to individuate a set of covers (that...
متن کاملEnergy-efficient Area Coverage by Sensors with Adjustable Ranges
In wireless sensor networks, density control is an important technique for prolonging a network's lifetime. To reduce the overall energy consumption, it is desirable to minimize the overlapping sensing area of the sensor nodes. In this paper, we study the problem of energy-efficient area coverage by the regular placement of sensors with adjustable sensing and communication ranges. We suggest a ...
متن کاملMinimum-Cost Linear Coverage by Sensors with Adjustable Ranges
One of the most fundamental tasks of wireless sensor networks is to provide coverage of the deployment region. In this paper, we study the coverage of a line segment with a set of wireless sensors with adjustable coverage ranges. Each coverage range of a sensor is an interval centered at that sensor. The objective is to find a range assignment with the minimum cost. There are two variants of th...
