Coverage holes (CHs) due to the correlated node failures, if not appropriately addressed in a timely manner, not only disrupt network's operation but also can compromise its integrity. In the absence of centralised control, distributed node relocation can be an effective solution to recover CHs. Relocation algorithms that mainly applied to all nodes to address networks' coverage and unbalanced deployments...
In Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs), on-body channels undergo temporal variations predominantly because of the body motion and shadowing of tissue. This paper focuses on a common human activity, walking, to explore the characteristics of the dynamic on-body propagation channel. A customized portable wireless sounder is built and utilized to collect the original on-body channel data both for the...
Physical damage and/or node power exhaustion may lead to coverage holes in WSNs. Coverage holes can be directly detected by certain proximate nodes known as boundary nodes (B-nodes). Due to the sensor nodes' redundant deployment and autonomous fault detection, holes are surrounded by a margin of B-nodes (MB-nodes). If all B-nodes in the margin take part in the hole recovery processes, either by increasing...
