Abstract

Sensors typically have limited power of transmission. Thus desired connectivity probability (CP) between the sensors is critical in the given deployment area. This paper presents a novel approach for analyzing the lower bound of CP for sensor networks under uniformly distribution of the sensors in a given area.
