Abstract

The lifetime of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) has been studied extensively. Lifetime is application specific, and long lifetime is desirable in general. In barrier coverage, it is desirable to have a large number of barriers active as well. Energy harvesting is an active research area in WSNs. In this paper we study the barrier coverage problem in energy harvesting WSNs. We develop an algorithm that finds a repeating sleep/wakeup schedule that can provide the continuous operation of the maximum number of barriers in an energy harvesting WSN.
