Article Synopsis
- Next-generation wireless networks rely on effective positioning, coverage, and connectivity to monitor regions and detect targets using wireless sensor networks (WSNs).
- Randomly deployed sensor nodes often lead to poor coverage and battery depletion creates gaps, necessitating optimal sensor placement to enhance monitorability, which this study addresses using an enhanced particle swarm optimization (EPSO) algorithm.
- The EPSO algorithm improves coverage by ensuring that sensor nodes are spaced apart and that each target is monitored, with results showing improved coverage conditions at various frequency bands, especially with a communication radius of 4 m compared to existing methods.
