Abstract :
In this paper, we develop concepts of network coverage by a set of mobile wireless sensors for given AOIs, possibly under given deadline constraints. We present analytical results to characterize various basic statistical properties of AOI coverage, when sensors move according to the random waypoint model -either by design or when carried by mobile hosts engaging in random movement -within a closed network area with boundaries.
