US Patent 10992752 Sensor network configuration mechanisms

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for wireless sensor networks (WSNs), including sensor deployment mechanisms for road surveillance. Disclosed embodiments are applied to design roadside infrastructure with optimal perception for a given geographic area. The deployment mechanisms account for the presence of static and dynamic obstacles, as well as symmetry aspects of the underlying environment. The deployment mechanisms minimize the number of required sensors to reduce costs and conserve compute and network resources, and extended infrastructure the sensing capabilities of sensor networks. Other embodiments are disclosed and/or claimed.
