Local Coverage Optimization Strategy Based on Voronoi for Directional Sensor Networks
Sensors, 2016 In this paper, we study the area coverage of directional sensor networks (DSNs) with random node distribution. The coverage of DSNs depends on the sensor’s locations, the sensing radiuses, and the working directions, as well as the angle of view (AoV ...

Robot Formations for Area Coverage [PDF]
, 2009 Two algorithms for area coverage (for use in space applications) were evaluated using a simulator and then tested on a multi-robot society consisting of LEGO Mindstorms robots. The two algorithms are (i) a vector force based implementation and (ii) a machine learning approach. The second is based on an organizational-learning oriented classifier system
