As a consequence, one of the scientific research challenges in WSNs, which has been addressed by a large amount of literature +during the last few years, is the design of energy efficient approaches for coverage and connectivity~\cite{ref94}. Coverage reflects how well a sensor field is monitored. On the one hand, we want to monitor the area of interest in the most efficient way~\cite{ref95}. On the other hand, we want to use as little energy as possible. Sensor nodes are battery-powered with no means of recharging or replacing, usually due to environmental (hostile or +unpractical environments) or cost reasons. Therefore, it is desired that the WSNs are deployed with high densities so as to exploit the overlapping sensing regions of some sensor nodes to save energy by turning off some of them during the sensing phase to prolong the network lifetime. + +In this chapter, we design a protocol that focuses on the area coverage problem with the objective of maximizing the network lifetime. Our proposition, the Distributed Lifetime Coverage Optimization (DiLCO) protocol, maintains the coverage and improves the lifetime in WSNs. The area of interest is first +divided into subregions using a divide-and-conquer algorithm and an activity scheduling for sensor nodes is then planned by the elected leader in each subregion. In fact, the nodes in a subregion can be seen as a cluster where each node sends sensing data to the cluster head or the sink node. Furthermore, the activities in a subregion/cluster can continue even if another cluster stops due +to too many node failures. Our DiLCO protocol considers periods, where a period starts with a discovery phase to exchange information between sensors of the same subregion, in order to choose in a suitable manner a sensor node (the leader) to carry out the coverage strategy. In each subregion, the activation of the sensors for the sensing phase of the current period is obtained by solving +an integer program. The resulting activation vector is broadcast by a leader to every node of its subregion. + +The remainder of this chapter is organized as follows. The next section is devoted to the DiLCO protocol description. Section \ref{ch4:sec:03} gives the primary points based coverage problem formulation which is used to schedule the activation of sensors. Section \ref{ch4:sec:04} shows the simulation +results obtained using the discrete event simulator OMNeT++ \cite{ref158}. They fully demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed approach.

A WSN includes a large number +of small, limited-power sensors that can sense, process, and transmit data over +a wireless communication. They communicate with each other by using multi-hop +wireless communications and cooperate together to monitor the area of interest, +so that each measured data can be reported to a monitoring center called sink +for further analysis~\cite{ref222}. There are several fields of application +covering a wide spectrum for a WSN, including health, home, environmental, +military, and industrial applications~\cite{ref19}. + +On the one hand sensor nodes run on batteries with limited capacities, and it is +often costly or simply impossible to replace and/or recharge batteries, +especially in remote and hostile environments. Obviously, to achieve a long life +of the network it is important to conserve battery power. Therefore, lifetime +optimization is one of the most critical issues in wireless sensor networks. On +the other hand we must guarantee coverage over the area of interest. To fulfill +these two objectives, the main idea is to take advantage of overlapping sensing +regions to turn-off redundant sensor nodes and thus save energy. In this paper, +we concentrate on the area coverage problem, with the objective of maximizing +the network lifetime by using an optimized multiround scheduling. + +We study the problem of designing an energy-efficient optimization algorithm that divides the sensors in a WSN into multiple cover sets such that the area of interest is monitored as long as possible. Providing multiple cover sets can be used to improve the energy efficiency of WSNs. Therefore, in order to increase the longevity of the WSN and conserve the energy, it can be useful to provide multiple cover sets in one time after that schedule them for multiple rounds, so that the battery life of a sensor is not wasted due to the repeated execution of the coverage optimization algorithm, as well as the information exchange and leader election. + +The MuDiLCO protocol (for Multiround Distributed Lifetime Coverage Optimization protocol) presented in this chapter is an extension of the approach introduced in chapter 4. Simulation results have shown that it was more interesting to divide the area into several subregions, given the computation complexity. Compared to our protocol in chapter 4, in this one we study the possibility of dividing the sensing phase into multiple rounds. In fact, in this chapter we make a multiround optimization, while it was a single round optimization in our protocol in chapter 4. + +The remainder of the chapter continues with section \ref{ch5:sec:02} where a detail of MuDiLCO Protocol is presented. The next section describes the Primary Points based Multiround Coverage Problem formulation which is used to schedule the activation of sensors in T cover sets. Section \ref{ch5:sec:04} shows the simulation +results.

This is a key issue as sensor nodes have limited resources in terms of memory, energy, and computational power. To cope with this problem, the field of sensing is divided into smaller subregions using the concept of divide-and-conquer method, and then we propose a protocol which optimizes coverage and lifetime performances in each subregion.
