Abstract :
Mobile sensors are often employed for enhancing the sensing coverage and assisting the data gathering in wireless sensor networks. Equipped with unlimited mobility, they are able to move anywhere within the monitored field. Despite the promising simulation (or testbed) result and theoretical conclusion in paper, we have to realize the assumption on unlimited mobility has limitations and is practically unrealistic in many applications.
