Actors'relocation is utilized during the network initialization to enhance real-time performance of wireless sensor and actor networks(WSANs)which is an important issue of WSANs.The actor deployment problem in WSANs is proved NP-Hard whether the amount of actors is redundant or not,but to the best of our knowledge,no effective distributed algorithms in previous research can solve the problem.Thus two actor deployment strategies which need not the boundary control compared with present deployment strategies are proposed to solve this problem approximately based on the Voronoi diagram.Through simulation experiment,the results show that our distributed strategies are more effective than the present deployment strategies in terms of real-time performance,convergence time and energy consumption.
数据收集是无线传感器网络的一个基本功能。由于部署在基站周围的传感器节点承担着网络内大部分的负载,因此导致能量迅速耗尽,现有的基站移动策略可以通过基站的移动实现网络内传感器节点的负载平衡以延长网络寿命。但是现有负载平衡的基站移动策略只能在传感器节点被均匀布撒的情况下才能有效地延长网络寿命,其他情况下不能达到延长网络寿命的效果。因此本文定义了点能量概念用以表示传感器网络对感知区域每个点的感知能量,并给出了有效的点能量密度计算方法。通过点能量密度消耗分析,提出了一种点能量密度平衡的基站移动策略(energy-density-balance base stationmovement,简称EDB-BSM)。通过理论分析和仿真试验验证,相对于固定基站模式和基站随机移动模式,该移动策略能够在各种传感器节点分布情况下有效的延长网络寿命,并具有良好可扩展性。
