Abstract
To design an efficient Wireless Sensor Network application one need to understand the behavior of the sensor nodes deployed. To understand the behavior of a systemwe need a very good model, that can represent the system in amore realistic manner. There is a vagueness that we can identify in defining the sensing coverage of any sensor node. The human like reasoning that best suits for this vagueness is the fuzzy reasoning. Here in this paper, we are proposing a fuzzy based model and inference system to best way represent the sensing behavior of sensor nodes. Also, we propose a measure that can be used to check or compare the WSN system performance.
