%Instead of working with a continuous coverage area, we make it discrete by considering for each sensor a set of points called primary points. Consequently, we assume that the sensing disk defined by a sensor is covered if all of its primary points are covered. The choice of number and locations of primary points is the subject of another study not presented here.
-\indent Instead of working with the coverage area, we consider for each sensor a set of points called primary points~\cite{idrees2014coverage}. We also assume that the sensing disk defined by a sensor is covered if all the primary points of this sensor are covered. By knowing the position (point center: ($p_x,p_y$)) of a wireless sensor node and it's sensing range $R_s$, we calculate the primary points directly based on the proposed model. We use these primary points (that can be increased or decreased if necessary) as references to ensure that the monitored region of interest is covered by the selected set of sensors, instead of using all the points in the area.

-Assuming that the point center of a wireless sensor node is located at $(p_x,p_y)$, we can define up to 25 primary points $X_1$ to $X_{25}$.\\

$X_1=(p_x,p_y)$ \\
$X_2=( p_x + R_s * (1), p_y + R_s * (0) )$\\
