Abstract

Coverage area and network lifetime are major problems in wireless multimedia sensor networks (WMSN). In order to optimize the network coverage and maximize the network's lifetime, we propose a coverage-enhancing algorithm based on sensors' priority. To increase the lifetime of the network, the density of distributed sensors could be such that a subset of sensors can cover the required air space. The sensors are prioritized based on their visual and Communicative properties and the selection is performed according to the prioritizing function. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm achieves more effective enhancement on network coverage compared to the existing algorithm.
