Maximizing the Lifetime of Sliding Wireless Sensors in Barrier Coverage

摘要

Wireless sensor network is always deployed in specific area for intrusion detection and environmental monitoring. The sensor nodes suffer mostly from their limited battery capacity. Maximizing the lifetime of the entire networks is mainly necessary considered in the design. Sliding the sensors in different barriers under the optimal barrier construction is a good solution for both maximizing network lifetime and providing predetermined coverage ratio. The simulation results demonstrate that the scheme can effectively reduce the energy consumption of the wireless sensor network and increase the network lifetime.
