In this paper we propose an adaptive random walk for wireless networks. The lifetime of the walk is varied in such a way that at least a given fraction of nodes is covered, in expectation. The only parameter of the random walk, a, depends on the nominal network size N and on the required coverage. For sizes lower than N the required coverage is satisfied with lifetime slightly higher than the optimal one. The paper reports performance results obtained through analytical study backed up with simulations.

Abstract

In this paper we propose an adaptive random walk for wireless networks. The lifetime of the walk is varied in such a way that at least a given fraction of nodes is covered, in expectation. The only parameter of the random walk, a, depends on the nominal network size N and on the required coverage. For sizes lower than N the required coverage is satisfied with lifetime slightly higher than the optimal one. The paper reports performance results obtained through analytical study backed up with simulations.
