The addition of massive machine type communication (mMTC) as a category of Fifth
Generation (5G) of mobile communication, have increased the popularity of Internet of …

Sensor networks, which consist of sensor nodes each capable of sensing environment and
transmitting data, have lots of applications in battlefield surveillance, environmental …

Sensor networks, as a promising network paradigm, have been widely applied in a great
deal of critical real-world applications. A key challenge in sensor networks is how to improve …

The coverage problem, as a fundamental problem for almost all types of applications in
wireless sensor networks (WSNs), has been studied for over a decade. Because of its …

Three of the main reasons why the new H. 264 (MPEG-4AVC) video coding standard has a
significant performance benefit versus older standards are the adoption of variable block …

Target tracking and localization are important applications in wireless sensor networks.
Although the coverage problem for target detection has been intensively studied, few …

The Voronoi Diagram (VD) is a fundamental algorithm for resolving the coverage problems
of wireless sensor networks. Most VD based coverage algorithms collect global location …

Network coverage is one of the most critical issues to implement Wireless Sensor Networks
(WSNs). It is important to find out a sensor set with maximal residual energy to cover all …

Coverage is an important performance metric in sensor networks. The traditional disk
coverage model uses a very simple geometric relation between a sensor and its …

The motivation for writing this book came from our previous research works on sensor
coverage. They received a large number of citations and this number grows rapidly each …
