A Power-Control-Based WSN Boundary Detection Algorithm for Agricultural Environment Mornitoring

Article Preview

Abstract:

As the traditional boundary detection algorithms usually ignore the boundary width, this paper proposed a boundary detection algorithm based on power control to adjust the edge width. The algorithm did not need to establish the 2-neighbor graph which with higher time and space is complex. The algorithm detected boundary only by analyzing the connectivity of the rings, and did not require any information about node location. Simulation results show that the algorithm can detect the boundary nodes exactly.
