Abstract: Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are emerging as a significant area of research due to their potential to autonomously monitor physical and environmental conditions. These networks comprise spatially distributed, low-cost sensor nodes with limited transmission range, processing capabilities, storage, and energy resources. The primary function of these networks is to collect data from various nodes and transmit it to a base station for subsequent processing. WSNs present several challenges, including optimal sensor deployment, node localization, base station placement, target node location, energy-aware clustering, and data aggregation. Recently, global researchers have been employing a bio-inspired optimization algorithm, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), to enhance the efficiency of WSNs. This report explores the application of the PSO algorithm for optimal sensor deployment in WSNs, contributing to the ongoing efforts to maximize the potential of these networks.
