Conference Paper Description

The main objective of dynamic deployment in Wireless Sensor Networks is to use the mobility of sensor nodes, trying to increase the coverage area of the networks by dynamically adjusting the node positions. In this paper, with the characteristics of the optimal sensor deployment in theory, we improve the standard artificial bee colony algorithm by introducing the distance factor to improve the onlooker bee selection probability formula, changing the working mode of the scout bee to avoid worse coverage rate and changing the limit l for scout bee to increase the chance to get better solution. Results show that the improved artificial bee colony algorithm has faster convergent speed and higher coverage rate compared with the standard artificial bee colony algorithm. © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.
