A study on coverage control algorithm for MANET

Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET) is consists of a node that has mobility, MANET builds cluster formation for using energy efficient Coverage Control algorithm. In existing LEACH algorithm, the network elects cluster head node in coverage area by distribution function. However, when the cluster head node, that, elected by distribution function, has divided the coverage area unevenly, the network can't consume energy efficiency. To solve this problem, we proposed CSWC (Coverage Scheduling Weight-value Control) algorithm. As the results, the proposed algorithm is set balance coverage area, the network consumes energy efficiency.
