In this paper, we address the issue of coverage in a hybrid wireless sensor network with regard to energy constrains. Since battery resources of sensors is limited, it is important to design energy-efficient algorithms. Limiting the moving distance of mobile sensors and using the minimum number of working sensor nodes are good ways of conserving energy resources in sensors. In our algorithm, maximum...
