Distributed center and coverage region estimation in wireless sensor networks using diffusion adaptation

A fully distributed algorithm for estimating the center and coverage region of a wireless sensor network (WSN) is proposed. The proposed algorithm is useful in many applications, such as finding the required power for a certain level of connectivity in WSNs and localizing a service center in a network. The network coverage region is defined to be the smallest sphere that covers all the sensor nodes. The center and radius of the smallest covering...
