Abstract | ||||
This paper addressed the sensing coverage problem in wireless sensor networks. A sensing coverage range estimation scheme is presented and analytically validated. In presence of channel fading, we have also proposed a Lagrange based, optimal power assignment algorithm that guarantees a predefined probability of detection over the sensor-to-fusion center communication channels at a given probability of false alarm. Analytic results reflect the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms which tries to make the network operational point falls in the feasible SNR region at the lowest (optimal) transmission energy consumption. | ||||
