Abstract

Wireless Rechargeable Sensor Networks (WRSNs) has emerged with the advantages of high charging efficiency, which can guarantee the timeliness of charging and the service quality of network coverage. To guarantee the continuous coverage of the rechargeable sensors, continuous power supply for sensors becomes more important. In this paper, we focus on the Charging Scheduling problem with Maximized Energy Efficiency in WRSNs (CS-MEE Problem), in which a mobile charger is used to charge the low energy sensors in WRSN. The problem aims to optimize travelling path of the mobile charger for maximizing the charging energy efficiency of the charging process. We firstly give the mathematical model and NP-hardness proof of the problem. Then we propose an heterogeneous-weighted-graph algorithm, called CS-HWG, to solve the problem. To evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm, the extensive simulation experiments are conducted under four influencing factors in terms of the energy efficiency of the mobile charger to verify the effectiveness of the algorithm.
