Abstract

Recent advances in integrated electronic devices motivated the use of wireless sensor networks in many applications including target surveillance and tracking. A number of sensor nodes are scattered within a sensitive region to detect the presence of intruders and forward subsequent events to the analysis center(s). Obviously, the sensor deployment should guarantee and optimal event detection rate. This paper proposes a high-level Voronoi-based technique to assess the area coverage based on information available locally for each sensor node. We show that the proposed technique can be used to implement a coverage-preserving mobility process to enhance the initial sensor deployment. We also highlight other potential applications of our approach.
