Transforming Area Coverage to Target Coverage to Maintain Coverage and Connectivity for Wireless Sensor Networks

Area coverage is one of the key issues for wireless sensor networks. It aims at selecting a minimum number of sensor nodes to cover the whole sensing region and maximizing the lifetime of the network. In this paper, we discuss the energy-efficient area coverage problem considering boundary effects i...
