Optimizing K-coverage of mobile WSNs

作者：

Highlights：

• K-Coverage is a complex model in Mobile Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs).

• This paper proposes a new model for optimizing K-coverage of Mobile WSNs.

• The proposed model extends the network lifetime in a range of 26%–45.7%.

• The network throughput is improved in a range of 13%–17.6%.

• Moreover, the running time to form the network structure is reduced by 12%.
