Survey on Coverage in Wireless Sensor Networks Deployment

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), which is a novel class of computing and a new spot of information technology, is envisaged in application such as hostile environment surveillance and void event tracking. One fundamental issue in WSN is the deployment issue, which affects the performance and lifetime of the network. The deployment issue in WSN includes coverage, connectivity and energy-efficiency. The coverage problem in WSN is discussed in this paper.
