Overview:

Wireless sensor networks have a broad range of applications in the military, surveillance, environment monitoring, and healthcare fields. Coverage of sensor networks describes how well an area is monitored. The coverage problem has been studied extensively, especially when combined with connectivity and energy efficiency. Constructing a connected, fully covered, and energy efficient sensor network is valuable for real world applications due to the limited resources of sensor nodes. This paper surveys five recent research approaches on coverage of wireless sensor networks and presents in some detail the algorithms, assumptions, and results. A comprehensive comparison among these approaches is given from the perspective of design objectives, assumptions, algorithm attributes, and related results. Open research problems on coverage are also discussed.
