Abstract
Wireless sensor networks (WSN) have attracted considerable interest in recent years as a convenient, flexible and low cost alternative to wired sensor in many contexts. Deployment of sensor nodes is a critical task as deployment should be efficient to increase network lifetime. To address this problem, a hierarchical architecture is employed. In this paper, we propose an incremental deployment algorithm. By examining the node position, and the sensing cover area, the proposed algorithm indicates which position should deployed clusterheads and how many new clusterhead are necessary to cover the desired monitoring area. A comparison between the proposed algorithm with grid-based and augmenting placement are analyzed.
