Biogeography-based optimization scheme for solving the coverage and connected node placement problem for wireless sensor networks

In wireless sensor networks, coverage and connectivity are the fundamental problems for monitoring the targets and guaranteed information dissemination to the far away base station from each node which covers the target. This problem has been proved NP-complete problem, where a set of target points are given, the objective is to find optimal number of suitable positions to organize sensor nodes such that it must satisfy both k-coverage and...
