On deploying wireless sensors to achieve both coverage and connectivity

It is well-known that placing disks in the triangular lattice pattern is optimal for achieving full coverage on a plane. With the emergence of wireless sensor networks, however, it is now no longer enough to consider coverage alone when deploying a ...

A wireless sensor network (WSN) consists of a group of energy-constrained sensor nodes with the ability of both sensing and communication, which can be deployed in a field of interesting (FoI) for detecting or monitoring some special events and then ...
