A $k$-connected wireless sensor network remains connected if any $k$-1 arbitrary nodes stop working. The aim of movement-assisted $k$-connectivity restoration is to preserve the $k$-connectivity of a network by moving the nodes to the necessary positions after possible failures in nodes. This paper proposes an algorithm named TAPU for $k$-connectivity restoration that guarantees the optimal movement cost. Our algorithm improves the time and space complexities of the previous approach (MCCR) in both best and worst cases. In the proposed algorithm, the nodes are classified into safe and unsafe groups. Failures of safe nodes do not change the $k$ value of …


Novel Node Deployment Scheme And Reliability Quantitative Analysis For An Iot-Based Monitoring System, Yinghua Tong, Liqin Tian, Jing Li Jan 2019

Novel Node Deployment Scheme And Reliability Quantitative Analysis For An Iot-Based Monitoring System, Yinghua Tong, Liqin Tian, Jing Li

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

The Internet of things (IoT) is highly suitable for military, environmental, agricultural, and other remote real-time monitoring applications. A reliable topology ensures a stable and dependable monitoring system. Considering the research of an IoT-based air pollution monitoring system for industrial emissions as background, this study proposes a novel dual redundant node deployment scheme. Specifically, hexagonal clustering is proposed for the internal regions. In addition, relationship and quantification formulas for a monitoring area are presented, and the communication range, total number of layers of the topology, and number of cluster headers are determined. Interruptions in a monitoring system may reduce the …
