Abstract
Mobile wireless sensor networks can be described as a wireless sensor network in which the sensor nodes are mobile and it is a set of physically distributed sensor nodes.Sensor node is a small wireless device with limited battery life, radio transmission range and storage size. It performs various tasks like collecting important data, monitoring the environment and processing the data etc.The main property of sensors i.e. mobility can be very efficiently used to improve the target coverage quality and network connectivity in randomly deployed mobile sensor networks.Two main challenging issues of mobile sensor networks are Target coverage(TVOC) AND Network connectivity(NVOC).This paper focuses on the challenges of the Mobile Sensor Deployment (MSD) problem and investigates how to deploy mobile sensors with minimum movement and energy consumption to form a WSN that provides both target coverage and network connectivity.
