Summary: | Due to the wider application of wireless sensor networks in real life, 3D coverage closer to the actual application environment has become a research hotspot of current sensor networks. To this end, this paper proposes a three-dimensional coverage deployment method based on RSS (Received Signal Strength) under a probabilistic model. According to the path loss of the wireless signal in the propagation process, the distance between the nodes can be roughly calculated, and the maximum distance between the nodes is defined by setting a threshold of the path loss, thereby further ensuring network connectivity and network quality. The probability coverage model is used and the cube-based network coverage is constructed. Based on this, the optimal coverage deployment problem in 3D-WSN is explored. Combining and improving the traditional particle swarm optimization algorithm can converge faster and avoid falling into local optimum. The simulation results show that the proposed method can converge quickly to improve network coverage and effectively reduce network energy consumption. In addition, we built a real experimental environment to verify the network quality by observing the RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator) changes. The experimental results verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.
