Abstract

We study the coverage problem from the fault tolerance point of view for sensor networks. Fault tolerance is a critical issue for sensors deployed in places where are not easily replaceable, repairable and rechargeable. The failure of one node should not incapacitate the entire network. We propose three 1 fault tolerant models, and we compare them among themselves, and with the minimal coverage model [8].
