Abstract

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) comprise a large number of sensor nodes, which are spread out within a region and communicate using wireless links. In some WSN applications, recognizing boundary nodes is important for topology discovery, geographic routing and tracking. In this paper, we study the problem of recognizing the boundary nodes of a WSN. We firstly identify the factors that influence the design of algorithms for boundary detection. Then, we classify the existing work in boundary detection, which is vital for target tracking to detect when the targets enter or leave the sensor field.
