Abstract
Wireless sensor networks are usually deployed in harsh environments, remote locations and unmanned areas. Especially in the complex application environment, the optimization of node deployment strategy is the basic problem of wireless sensor network research. An efficient node deployment strategy can not only significantly reduce the redundancy and deployment cost of network nodes, but also improve network awareness, robustness and lifetime by improving the energy efficiency of nodes and balancing the load of data traffic. It is particularly important to ensure the effective implementation of subsequent network monitoring tasks and the quality of service, which has become a research hotspot and key issue. Aiming at the problem of blind spots and node redundancy in network coverage, a sensor node deployment algorithm based on perceptual environment is proposed. The simulation results show that the deployment method can effectively cover the monitoring area and is suitable for various network application environments.
