Game Theoretical Algorithm for Coverage Optimization in Wireless Sensor Networks
Lun Zhang, Lan Chen, Decun Dong · 2008
Abstract—Game Theory is fundamentally and applicably addressed and incorporated to analyze the coverage problems in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) in this paper. GCC (Game-theoretical Complete Coverage) algorithm is used to ensure whole network coverage mainly through adjusting the covering range of nodes and controlling the network redundancy. Hereafter, by designing suitable cost and utility function for each nodes, simulations prove the efficiency and applicability of GCC algorithm and also inspire that GCC is an excellent way for time scheduling and keeping Network Integrity.
