Delaunay triangulation coverage strategy for wireless sensor networks

摘要

Wireless sensors networks are active area for research and a broad platform for many commercial applications. Coverage in a wireless sensor network can be thought of as how well the wireless sensor network is able to monitor a particular field of interest. Ensuring sufficient coverage in a sensor network is essential to obtaining valid data. In this paper coverage strategies are studied which are used in deployment stage. Strategies are categorized into three groups; Force Based, Grid Based and Computational Geometry Based Approach. In this paper Delaunay Triangulation computational geometry coverage strategy is implemented using MATLAB. It is found that Delaunay triangulation coverage strategy is efficient coverage strategy.
