Abstract

Topology control is one of the most elementary topics in wireless sensor networks. Typically, most of the research only considered the bidirectional communication and symmetric weighted communication model, while the real wireless world contains not only bidirectional but also unidirectional communication links and asymmetric weighted communication model. In this paper, we present two heuristics for the minimum power topology control problem on general model, i.e., given a set of sensors in the Euclidean plane and a transmission power threshold for each directed pair of sensors, to find a power assignment for each sensor to achieve a strong connectivity with minimum total transmission power. Extensive results in simulation evaluate the efficiency of the proposed algorithms. Copyright 2008 ACM.
