Argets Coverage News Today

In this article, we study an industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) network with a sink/gateway that is capable of decoding multiple transmissions via successive interference cancellation (SIC), and energy harvesting devices tasked with providing complete targets coverage of targets. In particular, we study a novel question: how to schedule the sensing and transmission of these devices to ensure complete target coverage over time? We outline a mixed integer linear program (MILP) and two heuristic ...

To date, a wide range of industries leverage the Internet of Things (IoT) to improve efficiency and productivity. Briefly, an IoT network consists of wireless sensor devices that are used to monitor an environment, provide coverage, or collect data of targets. The collected data can then be processed before it is uploaded to a sink/gateway or the cloud to be used by various applications. The full potential of IoT, however, is limited by a number of issues. First, most IoT networks are designed f...
