Abstract

Connecttivity of wireless sensor network Node has been a topic of active research in recent years. Network connectivity has been shown to be effective with respect to increasing localization performance via redundant nodes. In building sparse distribution of sensor nodes, multi-hop routing is traditionally approach to tiansmission information from a source node to a destination node. A disadvantage of this approach is that loss of connectivity of nodes in the path between source and destination may lead to a partitioning of the network. We present a new approach using synchronous transmission to connect disconnected parts of a network thus overcoming the separation problem of multi-hop networks. We show the approach improves connectivity compared to multi-hop approaches and reduces the number of nodes necessary to provide full coverage of an area.
