Applicability of a Novel Integer Programming Model for Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract

This paper presents an applicability analysis over a novel integer programming model devoted to optimize power consumption efficiency in heterogeneous wireless sensor networks. This model is based upon a schedule of sensor allocation plans in multiple time intervals subject to coverage and connectivity constraints. By turning off a specific set of redundant sensors in each time interval, it is possible to reduce the total energy consumption in the network and, at the same time, avoid partitioning the whole network by losing some strategic sensors too prematurely. Since the network is heterogeneous, sensors can sense different phenomena from different demand points, with different sample rates. As the problem instances grows the time spent to the execution turns impracticable.
