Local Maximum Lifetime Algorithms for Strong Barrier Using Coordinated Sensors
Sunil Kumar · 2013
Barrier coverage is known to be an appropriate model of coverage for movement detection and boundary guard, which is achieved by barriers of coordinated sensors. A Border Security System watches intruders by using sensor nodes with communication function. The detection of some intruders and the use of a long-term operation system are required in this system. This paper proposes network construction methods of sensor nodes for Border Security Systems that uses a Divide-and-Conquer scheme. The design is based on new local maximal lifetime algorithm and following protocol for strong k- barrier with coordinated sensors. The proposed barrier coverage network construction methods are suitable for Border Security Systems and reduce the power consumption of the whole network system by effective control of sensor nodes.
