Abstract :
In this paper, a fuzzy c-means clustering algorithm is proposed to determine the optimum deployment of sensor nodes. It is for a given application space to improve energy efficiency and reduce cost. We performed simulation for ´L´ shaped area to find minimum number and optimum location of sensor nodes.
