Abstract

In recent years wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have become one of the most active research areas due to the bright and interesting future promised to the world of information technology. It is an emerging field which is accomplishing much importance because of its vast contribution in varieties of applications. Coverage is one of the main research interests in wireless sensor networks (WSN), it is used to determine the quality of service (QoS) of the networks. Therefore this paper aims to review the common strategies use in solving coverage problem in WSN. The strategies studied are used during deployment phase where the coverage is calculated based on the placement of the sensors on the region of interest (ROI). The strategies reviewed are categorized into three groups namely; force based, grid based and computational geometry based approach.
