A Survey on Topology Issues in Wireless Sensor Network

Category: Software and Web Development, Networking and Communications

Overview Topology issues have received more and more attentions in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). While WSN applications are normally optimized by the given underlying network topology, another trend is to optimize WSN by means of topology control. A number of approaches have been invested in this area, such as topology directed routing, cooperating schemes, sensor coverage based topology control and network connectivity based topology control. Most of the schemes have proven to be able to provide a better network monitoring and communication performance with prolonged system lifetime. This paper provides a full view of the studies in this area. By summarizing previous achievements and analyzing existed problems, they also point out possible research directions for future work.
