Abstract :
In this paper, we propose novel deployment strategies for Wireless Sensor Networks and study 3D coverage under these heterogeneous deployment strategies. Our aim is to find answers to questions like how many sensors are needed to cover a specified 3D terrain at a specified coverage percentage. Furthermore, the effect of sleeping on coverage is also studied. Simulation results demonstrate that depending on application requirements an appropriate deployment strategy can be selected to obtain required 3D coverage.
