Abstract

One of the main issues in rechargeable wireless sensor networks (RWSNs) is the stainability of network operation. Recently, wireless power transmission technology has been applied in RWSNs to transmit wireless power from chargers to sensor nodes. In this paper, we focus on how a charger changes its direction to cover different nodes for energy provisioning and, how to sense maximum data from the area of network. We intend to tackle the challenge that how to cover different nodes from each direction so that the charger can provide maximum power to maintain network performance. In this regard, a direction scheduling algorithm is proposed to fill the charging demand. Furthermore, a proposed Linear Programming based solution is proposed to determine maximum data sensing rate. The simulation results show that the proposed method performs better compared with existing methods.
