First, the targets only occur in a part of the interested area; however, a large number of static sensors are distributed in the area to guarantee entire coverage, which leads to wastage of sensor resources. Second, many static sensors have to remain in active mode to track the targets, which causes an increase of energy consumption. To solve these problems, a target group tracking algorithm based on a hybrid sensor network is proposed in this paper, which includes static sensors and mobile sensors. First, an estimation algorithm is proposed to estimate the objective region by static sensors, which work in low-power sensing mode. Second, a movement algorithm based on sliding windows is proposed for mobile sensors to obtain the destinations. Simulation results show that this algorithm can reduce the number of mobile sensors participating in the tracking task and prolong the network lifetime.展开更多

The optimal algorithms are explored to solve the energy saving, shortest path problems, etc. However, in practical environment, there are many fields, whose map is difficult to get, and need to detect. This paper explores a kind of ad-hoc navigation algorithm based on the hybrid sensor network without the prior map. The system of navigation is composed of static nodes and mobile nodes. The static nodes monitor events occurring and broadcast. In the system, a kind of cluster broadcast method is adopted to determine the robot localization. The mobile nodes detect the adversary or dangerous fields and broadcast warning message. Robot gets the message and follows ad-hoc routine to arrive the events occurring place. In the whole process, energy saving has taken into account. The algorithms of nodes and robot are given in this paper. The simulate and practical results are available as well.展开更多

In this paper, we present target interception as a novel application using mobile sensor nodes as executor. Static sensor nodes sense, compute and communicate with each other for navigation. Mobile nodes are guided to intercept target by the static nodes nearby. Our approach does not require any prior maps of the environment thus, cutting down the cost of the overall energy consumption. As to multi-targets multi-mobile nodes case, we present a PMB algorithm for task assignment. Simulation results have verified the feasibility and effectiveness of our approach proposed.展开更多

Because of limited power source, energy consumption has been considered as the most critical factor when designing sensor network protocols. The network lifetime mainly depends on the battery lifetime of the node. The main concern is to increase the lifetime with respect to energy constraints. One way of doing this is by turning off redun-dant nodes to sleep mode to conserve energy while active nodes can provide essential k-coverage, which improves fault-tolerance. Hence, we use scheduling algorithms that turn off redundant nodes after providing the required coverage level k. The scheduling algorithms can be implemented in centralized or localized schemes, which have their own advantages and disadvantages. To exploit the advantages of both schemes, we employ both schemes on the network according to a threshold value. This threshold value is estimated on the performance of WSN based on network lifetime comparison using centralized and localized algorithms. To extend the network lifetime and to extract the useful energy from the network further, we go for compromise in the area covered by nodes.展开更多
