Abstract :
Sensor deployment is an important problem in mobile wireless sensor networks, which affects the performance and lifetime of the network. This paper presents a distributed deployment algorithm for mobile sensors. Our algorithm is compared with a simulated annealing based algorithm for deployment with the metrics such as coverage, uniformity, time and distance and the Simulation results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
