摘要:Improving coverage and connectivity is a very impor
tant issue in wireless sensor networks. The unatten
ded
or uncovered region in a sensing field is called a
coverage hole. A coverage hole impacts the performa
nce
of the wireless sensor network, disconnects the net
work topology and causes delay in data transmission
.
These coverage holes can be healed randomly or each
hole can be assigned a priority value for healing.
In
this paper we will discuss about various hole heali
ng strategies and their mechanisms.
