Coverage And Connectivity

The topology attributes of both connectivity and coverage in a wireless sensor network depend on the spatial distribution and transmission range of the nodes. This paper proposes an analytical expression of the required critical transmission range of a node, for a given node density, to create an almost surely connected network. Equivalently, if the maximum range of the nodes is given, it can estimate effectively the number of nodes needed to cover a certain connected network. With experimental tests, the method is proved to achieve guaranteed degrees of coverage and connectivity, valuable for researchers in this area.
