ABSTRACT

Maximize coverage and prolong the network lifetime for wireless sensor networks has become one of the key topics of research. For this, put forward a kind of node scheduling strategy based on covering algorithm. The algorithm by Poisson distribution model structure node density formula, according to the node density formula in the monitoring region deploying to effective coverage; On the other hand, through the node state scheduling mechanism updates as well as to the neighbor node, can be made of residual energy of nodes and monitoring the area sensor the node energy consumption balance, so as to prolong the network lifetime goal. The simulation results show that, the algorithm cans not only useless nodes completely too effective coverage, improve the coverage while optimizing the cyber source configuration, prolong the network lifetime.
