Abstract
Sensor deployment is one of the key topics addressed
in Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). This paper proposes a new
deployment technique of sensor nodes for WSN called as Quasi
Random Deployment (QRD). The novel approach to deploy
sensor nodes in QRD fashion is to improve the energy efficiency
of the WSN in order to increase the network life time and
coverage. The QRD produces highly uniform coordinates and it
systematically fills the specified area. Along with Random
Deployment (RD) pattern of wireless sensor node QRD is
analysed in this study. The network is simulated using NS-2
simulator. The efficiency of this deployment is evaluated
assuming three routing protocols used for the adhoc networks.
They are AODV, DSDV, and DSR. The protocol assumed at
transport layer is UDP. Application layer generates the CBR
traffic. The performance of these three routing techniques is
compared based on total energy consumption, coverage area. The
simulation results show that the conventional routing protocols
like DSR have a best performance for both RD and QRD of the
sensor nodes when there is no mobility of the sensor nodes as
compared to AODV and DSDV. Among AODV and DSDV,
AODV performs better as compared to DSDV.
