Abstract

In wireless sensor networks, such regular topology patterns as Square, Hexagon and Triangle can fully cover the area, provide accurate positioning for abnormal event, and achieve better network performance than random topology. In this paper, we survey related works to explore the deployment efficiency and network performance under such cases as full sensing coverage, k-coverage and l-connectivity. By summarizing the conclusions on the performance index of Area Per Node, we provide guidelines for network deployment, and propose several directions for further research.
