title = "Network optimization in wireless sensor networks",
abstract = "The limitations imposed by the nonrechargeable power supply of wireless sensors make energy conservation one of the overriding concerns and design parameters in developing wireless sensor network protocols. In this paper we present an energy conservation algorithm for network optimization. It is shown that the presented algorithm is able to exploit the inherent sensor redundancy in densely deployed sensor networks to maximize network life while maintaining a high level of sensor coverage across the sensor field. Simulations are performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of this intelligent algorithm over its peer that relies exclusively on randomization to ensure desirable coverage.",
