Generally, the sensor nodes can be placed either deterministically or randomly in the target sensing field so as to construct the wireless sensor network~\cite{ref107}. The method of placement the sensor nodes can be selected based on the type of sensors, application, and the environment. In the deterministic placing, the deployment can be achieved in case of small number of sensor nodes and in friendly environment, whilst for a large number of sensor nodes or where the area of interest is inaccessible or hostile, a random placing is the choice. The sensor network can be either dense or sparse. The dense deployment is preferable when it is necessary to provide a security robustness in WSNs.
