Abstract
Self-organized wireless sensor networks are ad-hoc networks containing a large number of energy-constrained sensors. Reducing energy consumption and prolonging network lifetime is one of the most important design challenges in wireless sensor network. In this paper, a decentralized node scheduling algorithm is proposed to keep a minimal necessary number of sensors active while maintaining networking connectivity and sensing coverage. Experimental results show that our algorithm outperforms the PEAS algorithm and the sponsor area based algorithm with respect to the number of working sensors needed.
