For multilayer mobile sensor network, the issues of improving sensor network coverage by the use of mobile sensors are studied. A coverage-optimized deployment algorithm based on grid-division and bipartite graph matching is proposed. Firstly, the deployment area is divided into many grids and build distribution matrix of sensor nodes. Then construct a bipartite graph G based on the grid-division and solve a matching of maximum cardinality of G. It corresponds to an optimal deployment scheme which maximizes the network coverage and minimizes the total movement cost. Results show that after optimized deployment the network coverage increases, and with the increase in the percentage of mobile nodes it increases accordingly. In the way of distributed calculating the network also can achieve a higher coverage ratio and the movement cost is lower. It is very suitable for deployment of multilayer sensor network.

For sparse overlay network built by static sensor nodes, this paper proposes the introduction of heterogeneous mobile sensor nodes, and designs a mobile coverage strategy to optimize the coverage performance of sensor network. At first, the monitoring area is divided into several sub-regions by iterative quartering and the sub-regions are represented by a quad-tree structure. Secondly, the mobile coverage strategy is planned based on the idea of divide and conquers and combing the overall regional strategy with local regional strategy. The overall regional mobile strategy is planned by go through all sub-regions according to breadth-first traversal of the quad-tree. The local regional mobile strategy in each sub-region is designed based on the distribution of static nodes after the sub-region meshing. The results show that the mobile coverage strategy can achieve good network coverage, and it is very suitable for multiple mobile nodes.

According to the multilayer sensor network structure of mobile nodes, proposing a coverage optimization control policy based on voronoi division. Based on the mobile policy of Sink nodes by the voronoi division, the essay proposes a coverage optimization control algorithm (COCA) based on coverage hole calculating to optimize the initial random deployment of sensor nodes, and then to eliminate coverage holes and improve the coverage performance of network. Simulation results show that, compared with the random deployed network, the COCA algorithm only requires fewer nodes to achieve a higher coverage ratio and to maintain in low energy consumption, which embodies optimum performance of the network deployment.

In sensor networks, a reasonable distribution of sensor nodes is an important role for the improvement of sensor ability, information collection ability and network survival. For multilayer mobile sensor network, a tree-based deployment optimization scheme was proposed and better sensor coverage could be achieved by topology adjustment utilizing mobility of sensor node. Sink nodes complete mobile positioning of S nodes based on rectangle division method and bounding box algorithm, and achieve the distribution optimization of S nodes by establishing extending-tree of Sink node as the center. Results show that the location error ratio reduces with the increase of Sink nodes. Compared with initial random deployment network, the network coverage ratio after optimal deployment significantly enhances, which effectively improve the coverage sensor range of overall network.

Distributed underwater sensor network coverage is divided into two main categories: deterministic coverage and stochastic coverage. A strategy is put forward to deploy determinate area by using a triangular-grid method. When a coverage ratio is known, the distance between nodes can be adjusted to meet the coverage ratio in the monitored area, and the least number of sensor nodes can be calculated. Also a heuristic method is proposed for stochastic area deployment strategy. It is under the premise that the initial node location randomly deployed is given, using Voronoi diagram, the not easiest monitored path is searched, and the network coverage performance is improved by configuring the new nodes in the path. Finally it is proved that network performance is more improved by the simulation experiments, when one to four nodes are configured in the easiest breach path.

Wireless sensor network is always deployed in specific area for intrusion detection and environmental monitoring. The sensor nodes suffer mostly from their limited battery capacity.Maximizing the lifetime of the entire networks is mainly necessary considered in the design. Sliding the sensors in different barriers under the optimal barrier construction is a good solution for both maximizing network lifetime and providing predetermined coverage ratio. The simulation results demonstrate that the scheme can effectively reduce the energy consumption of the wireless sensor network and increase the network lifetime.

DGreedy (distributed greedy) algorithm evaluates the priority level in view of remaining energy of terminals, and the relationships between neighbor nodes are not considered. At the same time, the adjustable sensing orientations of sensors are limited. Therefore, the network coverage ratio of DGreedy is affected usually by the processing order of sensor nodes. In this paper, an improved Greedy algorithm for the coverage in directional sensor network is proposed based on the principle of global greedy. The single coverage area of nodes is considered as priority. The direction of node with maximum single coverage area is deployed firstly. Thereby it reduces the sensing overlapping regions and accomplishes coverage enhancement of the networks. Meanwhile, in order to improve the network coverage ratio, the sensing orientations of sensors are adjustable continuously, so the best sensing orientation of node can be selected by considering the deployment of neighbor nodes. Simulation experiments show that the proposed algorithm can improve the coverage area effectively.

Wireless sensor network is widely used to monitor natural phenomena because natural disaster has globally increased which causes significant loss of life, economic setback, and social development. Saving energy in a wireless sensor network (WSN) is a critical factor to be considered. The sensor nodes are deployed to sense, compute, and communicate alerts in a WSN which are used to prevent natural hazards. Generally communication consumes more energy than sensing and computing; hence cluster based protocol is preferred. Even with clustering, multiclass traffic creates congested hotspots in the cluster, thereby causing packet loss and delay. In order to conserve energy and to avoid congestion during multiclass traffic a novel Priority Based Congestion Control Dynamic Clustering (PCCDC) protocol is developed. PCCDC is designed with mobile nodes which are organized dynamically into clusters to provide complete coverage and connectivity. PCCDC computes congestion at intra- and intercluster level using linear and binary feedback method. Each mobile node within the cluster has an appropriate queue model for scheduling prioritized packet during congestion without drop or delay. Simulation results have proven that packet drop, control overhead, and end-to-end delay are much lower in PCCDC which in turn significantly increases packet delivery ratio, network lifetime, and residual energy when compared with PASCC protocol.

This algorithm calculates the irregularity of blind zone in network coverage and obtains the minimum approximate numerical solution by utilizing the quantitative relationship between energy consumption of related nodes and the position of the mobile nodes. After determining the optimal relative position of the mobile nodes, the problem of blind zone between the static nodes is addressed. Simulation result shows that the proposed algorithm has high dynamic adaptability and can address the problem of blind zone maximally. Besides increasing the network coverage, the algorithm also reduces the network energy consumption, optimizes network coverage control and exhibits high convergence. </span>

Due to the increase of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) technologies demand, the optimal sensor node deployment is considered as one of the most important factors that directly affect the network coverage. Most researches in WSNs that solved the problem of coverage in homogeneous and heterogeneous cases are suffering from many drawbacks such as consumed energy and high cost. In this paper, we propose an efficient deployment model based on probabilistic sensing model (PSM) and harmony search algorithm (HSA) to achieve the balance between the network coverage performance and the network cost in a heterogeneous wireless sensor network (HEWSN). The HSA is used for deployment optimization of HEWSN nodes which makes a balance between the coverage and financial cost. The PSM is used to solve the overlapping problem among the sensors. The performance of the proposed model is analyzed in terms of coverage ratio and cost evaluations. The simulation results showed the capability of the proposed heterogeneous deployment model to achieve maximum coverage and a minimum number of sensors compared to homogeneous deployment. Furthermore, a comparative study with a meta-heuristic genetic-based algorithm in HEWSN has also been conducted, and its results confirm the superiority of the proposed model.
