Deployment Strategy of Wireless Sensor Networks: A Survey
Pei Jiang, Dong Li, Xueliang Pang · 2016
For wireless sensor network (WSN), the first step is to deploy sensor nodes effectively into the target area.In fact, node deployment will greatly influence the lifetime and performance of WSN system.In this paper, we summarized the evolution of sensing models frequently used.Some main models' property is analyzed in details.The strategies are classified into three classes (static deployment, mobile deployment and hybrid deployment) based on the mobility of sensor nodes.Then, the typical algorithms and ideas are introduced and commented.Different performance evaluation factors for sensor network are also depicted.Finally, the developing direction of future research is discussed and anticipated.
