ﻟا ـ algorithms In wireless sensor networks (WSN) coverage is an important aspect in measuring the quality of service of the network. Network with mobile WSN is able to improve its coverage by moving the sensor nodes so that a better arrangement is achieved. However sensors movement consumes energy. In this paper three algorithms are presented to optimize coverage of mobile WSN while at the same time taking energy usage into consideration. The algorithms proposed are based on particle swarm optimization (PSO). PSO is chosen due to its good performance record. Based on the tests conducted, the algorithms successfully achieve their objective.
