The separate situation of research has area coverage or target coverage in wireless sensor networks. Based on directional sensing model the algorithm used the virtual potential field to make the sensor nodes shift positions and change directions automatically in monitoring area, With the completion of multiple prior coverage of hot targets which needed higher quality requirements the algorithm could maximize the coverage rate throughout the monitoring area Simulation experiments show that the algorithm has a good ability of self-organizing. It can satisfy the requirements of coverage quality of the hot targets and the whole monitoring area and save resources effectively of the network.
