Redundancy detection protocol for area coverage control in heterogeneous wireless sensor networks
In a wireless sensor network, eliminating redundancies in area coverage in the deployment zone represents a major challenge where the stake is its lifetime increase. Current works dealing with this topic use different deterministic or probabilistic techniques for nodes redundancies check. In this paper, we propose a quasi-quadratic time distributed algorithm based on a deterministic approach enabling each node to know its exact status even in the context of heterogeneous sensing ranges. Simulations show that this novel technique is more accurate and precise in comparison with other traditional ones.
