Abstract

When some sensors under Wireless Sensor Networks fail or become energy-exhausted, redundant mobile sensors might be moved to recover the sensing holes. Within rugged terrain where wheeled sensors are unsuitable, other type of mobile sensors, such as hopping sensors, are needed. In this paper, we address the problem of relocating hopping sensors to the detected sensing holes. Recent study for this work considered the relocation using the shortest path between clusters; however, the shortest path might be used repeatedly and create other sensing holes. In order to overcome the mentioned problem, we propose relocation schemes using the most disjointed paths or multi-paths. Simulation results show that the proposed schemes guarantee more balanced migration distributions of efficient sensors and higher movement success ratios of required sensors than those of the shortest path-based scheme.
