Efficient deployment algorithms are developed in this paper to increase the coverage area in a network of wireless mobile sensors. The proposed strategies iteratively compute the new candidate position of each sensor based on the existing coverage holes. These holes are obtained using a Voronoi diagram for the case of sensors with the same sensing ranges, and a multiplicatively weighted Voronoi (MW-Voronoi)...
This paper introduces a novel distributed algorithm for deploying multi-robot systems, consisting of mobile robots with limited onboard sensing and wireless communication ranges, to approach the desired sensory coverage over targeted environments while maintaining communication connections. A virtual potential energy is defined for each mobile robot according to the difference between the actual and...
Stationary wireless sensor networks (WSNs) fail to scale when the area to be monitored is open (i.e borderless) and the physical phenomena to be monitored may migrate through a large region. Deploying mobile sensor networks (MSNs) alleviates this problem, as the self-configuring MSN can relocate to follow the phenomena of interest. However, a major challenge here is to maximize the sensing coverage...
