Abstract
In order to monitor for traffic traversal, sensors can be deployed to perform collaborative target detection. Such a sensor network achieves a certain level of detection performance with an associated cost of deployment. This paper addresses two points in this problem where the absolute quantity of sensors is insufficient. The discussion on the best deployment concludes that Zigzag deployment is recommended. The other discussion on measures to evaluate the performances of variant deployments is addressed. The discussion concludes that, in place of the existing “exposure”, a new tool can measure more accurately the detection performance given the circumstance where every deployed sensor operates as a binary model.
