Title
Minimizing Total Interference In Asymmetric Sensor Networks
Abstract
The problem of computing a connected network with minimum interference is a fundamental problem in wireless sensor networks. Several models of interference have been studied in the literature. The most common one is the receiver-centric, in which the interference of a node pis defined as the number of other nodes whose transmission range covers p. In this paper, we study the problem of assigning a transmission range to each sensor, such that the resulting network is strongly connected and the total interference of the network is minimized.For the one-dimensional case, we show how to solve the problem optimally in O(n(3)) time. For the two-dimensional case, we show that the problem is NP-complete and give a polynomial-time 2-approximation algorithm for the problem. (C) 2021 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
