Information Coverage

Coverage and connectivity in wireless sensor network have been studied extensively in existing research works with physical and information coverage. The optimal deployment to achieve both information coverage and connectivity, on arbitrary values of the ratio of rc and rs, has been studied in previous work; meanwhile, the extended strip-based deployment based on information coverage is also studied. Either information coverage or cooperative communication could exploit collaboration of sensor nodes to improve the efficiency of deployment, while how good is strip-based deployment with both information coverage and cooperative communication is worth to be measured when the value of rc/ rs is varied. In this article, the relationship between the density of sensors needed to achieve physical or information coverage and connectivity and the variety of rc/ rs is derived in closed form for strip-based deployment of wireless sensor networks with cooperative communication. Then, a summary of different combinations of coverage and connectivity is provided, that physical or information coverage with or without cooperative communication could be employed to achieve full coverage and connectivity for strip-based deployment. Finally, some new strategy could be proposed based on the fusion of physical and information coverage to improve strip-based deployment. Some numerical results are provided to show the efficiency of all schemes to help researchers design more effective deployment schemes.
