Abstract

One of the fundamental problems in sensor networks is the deployment of sensor nodes. The Fuzzy C-Means(FCM) clustering algorithm is proposed to determine the optimum location and minimum number of sensor nodes for the specific application space. We performed a simulation using two dimensional L shape model. The actual length of the L shape model is about 100m each. We found the minimum number of 15 nodes are sufficient for the complete coverage of modeled area. We also found the optimum location of each nodes. The real deploy experiment using 15 sensor nodes shows the 95.7%. error free communication rate.
