COVERAGE ENHANCEMENT OF AVERAGE DISTANCE BASED SELF-RELOCATION ALGORITHM USING AUGMENTED LAGRANGE OPTIMIZATION

, and . International Journal of Next-Generation Networks (IJNGN), 7 (2/3): 11 - 24 (September 2015)

Abstract

Mobile robots with sensors installed on them are used in wireless sensor networks to generate information about the area. These mobile robotic sensors have to relocate themselves after initial location in the field to gain maximum coverage The average distance based algorithm for relocation process of mobile sensors does not require any GPS system for tracking the robotic sensors, thus avoiding cost, but increasing energy consumption. Augmented Lagrange method is introduced in average distance based algorithm to simplify the boundary resolutions and increase the coverage area of sensors located in the field.
