| Abstract(in English) | In recent years, many studies have been conducted on incorporating mobile sinks into sensor networks and controlling their mobility in order to improve network connectivity and extend network lifetime. In existing methods, however, all or some nodes must know their own geographic location using special devices such as GPS receivers. Yet it entails a high cost when each node is equipped with a GPS receiver. Moreover, GPS-based localization cannot provide reliable location estimation in indoor environments and in the presence of obstacles. In this paper, we use a patrolling robot as a mobile sink and propose a controlled mobility to navigate the mobile sink towards the targeted sensor nodes. In our method, the targeted node constructs a potential field and the mobile sink can approach the target node using that field. We evaluate our method by implementing it into a cleaning robot for a mobile sink. We show that the mobile sink with our proposed method can reach the targeted node in about 5min. |
