Star shaped cluster deployment in triangular grid for monitoring forest fires

As the technology is advancing, a tiny device called sensor is proving its worth and applications in vast areas. These areas may include medical field, agriculture, environment monitoring, smart city projects and many more. These sensors works by forming a network called Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) which is very vivid and encouraging field of research in itself. But the bottleneck of this technology is the energy constraint as nodes are limited battery operated. Hence, in this paper, a star shaped deterministic deployment of the sensor nodes has been proposed. This technique will optimize the energy consumption as all nodes in the cluster will be only one node apart from the cluster-head. This is because we know the fact that maximum energy dissipates in sending information from one node to another. This technique will also result in minimum delay in taking decision. At the same time it will cover the maximum region by keeping the number of nodes low. Accuracy is again an important factor for WSNs for this support Vector Machine has been applied. Furthermore, cluster-head will keep changing after fixed time interval to balance the energy consumption of different nodes in the network.
