Abstract

The proliferation of Continuous boundary monitoring in large-scale wireless sensor networks in various applications such as fires and hazardous bio-chemical material diffusion. soil moisture draws tremendous significant attentions. In this paper. we propose an energyefficient EUCOW algorithm that monitors both interior and exterior boundary of unsmoothed object by selecting only the nodes are within transmission range r distance far from event boundary and a minimum set of representative nodes that actually report to the sink. The simulation results significantly verify that our algorithm can achieve a thinner accurate boundary with less boundary nodes as well as greatly reduce the report messages to save energy, especially when numerous event objects emerge into less number of objects.
