Sensor Relocation With Mobile Sensors: Design, Implementation, and Evaluation

Overview Mobile sensors are useful in many environments because they can move to increase the sensing coverage. This paper presents a mobile sensor prototype in which the Mica2 sensor node is used to control the movement of the robot built with Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) components. The authors use a sensor relocation application to demonstrate the feasibility of the design. In the sensor relocation application, after a sensor node failure creates a coverage hole, a mobile sensor node is relocated to cover the hole in a timely and energy-efficient way. This paper presents a distributed sensor relocation algorithm and provides novel solutions to implement this algorithm in the mobile sensor platform.
