Popis: | Nodes deployment is a fundamental factor in determining the connectivity, coverage, lifetime and cost of wireless sensor networks. In this paper, a two-tiered wireless sensor networks consisting of sensor clusters and a base station is considered. Within a sensor cluster, there are many sensor nodes and a relay node. We focus on the deployment strategy for sensor nodes and relay nodes to minimize cost under some constraints. Several means are used. The regular hexagonal cell architecture is employed to build networks. Based on the analysis of energy consumption of sensors and cost of network, an integer programming model is presented to minimize the cost. By the model, number of layers of sensor cluster is determined. In order to balance the energy consumption of sensors on the identical layer, a uniform load routing algorithm is used. The numerical analysis and simulation results show that the waste of energy and cost of wireless sensor networks can be effectively reduced by using the strategy. |
