## Abstract Coverage is an important issue in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) and is often used to measure how well a sensor field is monitored by the deployed sensors. If the area covered by a sensor can also be covered by some other sensors, this sensor can go into an energy‐saving sleep state wi

Abstract
In this work, we present a self‐management service for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) that automatically controls the network redundancy. Based on a density control function, this service improves the monitoring potential of the sensor nodes. Our simulation experiments show that this self‐management service provides good and lasting coverage, as desired by WSNs applications. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

## Abstract The range of applications of wireless sensor networks is so wide that it tends to invade our every day life. In the future, a sensor network will survey our health, our home, the roads we follow, the office or the industry we work in or even the aircrafts we use, in an attempt to enhanc
## Abstract A sensor selection scheme for source extraction in heterogeneous wireless sensor networks is proposed. The proposed scheme selects the sensors corresponding to the reconstructed mixtures with the largest signal‐to‐noise‐ratios to transmit their data to a fusion center. It exploits the h
