The Architecture of Planning and Deployment Platform for Wireless Sensor Networks

With the actual applications of the wireless sensor networks growing, the challenges of the actual deployment get more and more. To improve deployment efficiency, reduce the deployment cost and evaluate the deployment risk, we propose the planning and deployment platform for wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we investigate the architecture of the planning and deployment platform for wireless sensor networks and its implementation framework. The architecture mainly contains four modules; network deployment, initialization, simulation and performance evaluation and optimization. This framework, which is based on J-Sim simulator, also provides the implementation details of these modules. In addition, an integrated workflow for the platform is illuminated to comprehend the architecture and framework clearly
