On the Connectivity of Wireless Multihop Networks with Homogeneous and Inhomogeneous Range Assignment
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper investigates the connectivity of wireless multihop networks with uniformly randomly distributed nodes. We analyze the required transmission range that creates, for a given node density, an almost surely k–connected topology. Besides scenarios in which each node has the same range, we discuss inhomogeneous range assignments. Our results are of practical value for the task of setting parameters in network–level simulations of ad hoc networks and in the design of wireless sensor networks.

ENERGY AWARE DISTRIBUTED PARTITIONING DETECTION AND CONNECTIVITY RESTORATION ALGORITHM IN WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS
Mobile sensor networks rely heavily on inter-sensor connectivity for collection of data. Nodes in these networks monitor different regions of an area of interest and collectively present a global overview of some monitored activities or phenomena. A failure of a sensor leads to loss of connectivity and may cause partitioning of the network into disjoint segments. A number of approaches have be...
متن کاملEnhancement of Transmission Range Assignment for Clustered Wireless Sensor Networks
Transmitter range assignment in clustered wireless networks is the bottleneck of the balance between energy conservation and the connectivity to deliver data to the sink or gateway node. The aim of this research is to optimize the energy consumption through reducing the transmission ranges of the nodes, while maintaining high probability to have end-to-end connectivity to the network’s data sin...
