ACO-Based Sweep Coverage Scheme in Wireless Sensor Networks
2015
Coverage problem is one of the major issues in wireless sensor networks (WSN). In order to optimize the network coverage, different coverage formulations have been proposed. Recently, a newly emerging coverage scheme in wireless sensor networks, sweep coverage, which uses mobile sensors to monitor certain points of interest (POIs), is proposed. However, the data delivery to sink, an important problem in WSN, is not considered in original sweep coverage and many of the existing works did not consider it yet. In thi…
