  • Abstract
    The manner of organizing the sensors in the wireless sensor network for increasing the capability and optimized using of the sensors is of great importance. Hence considering coverage parameter in every Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is extremely essential and critical. The matter of overlapping covered area by sensors in 2D space had been considered until now. This paper is suggested a pattern in which no more are the sensors located at the same surface, but using the 3D geometrical figures like cube, pyramid and etc, in which the sensors were spreading about the different surfaces. Locating the sensors on the different surfaces can be useful under conditions where the space is not in same surface. The surface coverage parameter does not count using the 3D geometrical figures rather than covered volume. This paper is considered this parameter and the method of obtaining it.
