Abstract :
In Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), the coverage means how well a sensor network will monitor the total area of the region. Node deployment is one of the important issues that need to be solved. The number of sensor nodes has direct impact on the cost of the Wireless Sensor Networks. So, keeping this in mind, the proper deployment of nodes can reduce the complexity of problems, energy consumption can be reduced and thus extends the lifetime of the Wireless Sensor Networks. In this paper, we are considering the tactical environment, so the deployment of sensor node becomes random. We are forming the tessellation of the deployment as Rhombus other than Triangle, Square and Hexagon that are taken ideally for deploying the sensor nodes and after applying the proposed method the life time of the given network increases.
