Abstract

Energy recharging has received much attention now because of the development of wireless recharging technology. This paper proposes a greedy constructing tree algorithm for shortest path in perpetual wireless recharging wireless sensor networks (GCTA) which enables the recharger to work while moving through the shortest path. The algorithm can construct the shorter path which passes all the sensors only once and guarantees that each sensor will be fully recharged. It computes the path in advance with lower complexity. And it also uses the graph theory, the tree theory, the Markov chain theorem and the powerful computing function of a computer. The contributions of the paper are itemized as follows: guaranteeing all the sensors to be fully recharged only once and reducing the length of the recharging path through constructing the greedy tree. In the experiment, this algorithm can construct the shorter path. So it is novel, general and can be applied widely.
