The invention discloses a
wireless sensor network (WSN) target coverage method and device based on a chaos adaptive
bat algorithm, and belongs to the technical field of
wireless sensor network coverage. Aiming at the problems of limited communication range, poor adaptive capability and the like of the existing WSN, the method comprises the following steps of: initializing parameters, constructing a monitoring relation matrix to determine a fitness value, designing an adaptive
inertia weight strategy, updating various parameters of a bat individual, and carrying out operations such as local search, adaptive adjustment of
loudness and pulse
emissivity and the like. And judging a termination condition to obtain an optimal solution in combination with an elitist strategy and chaos updating. The device comprises a
network model construction module and the like and is used for executing the method. According to the method, the adaptive
bat algorithm is adopted to establish the target coverage model, the elite strategy and chaos updating are combined, the
algorithm is prevented from falling into
local optimum, the stability is improved, the
sensor node coverage area is effectively increased, the convergence speed is higher, the optimization capacity is stable, and the method is suitable for a WSN target coverage scene.
