Summary:
This paper proposes a method to find effective allocations of coordinators in ZigBee sensor networks using the Discrete Particle Swarm Optimizer with refractoriness term. In the proposed method, an observation area is represented as a grid space. For a given ZigBee end device location, it is decided whether each ZigBee coordinator is allocated or not on each intersection of the grid. Such binary state variables are optimized by the proposed method. In the simulation experiments, the proposed method is evaluated to some of given ZigBee end device locations, and is compared with common DPSO method. It is shown that the proposed method was able to discover more effective solutions than the common DPSO method.
