Novel Visual Sensor Deployment Algorithm in Occluded Wireless Visual Sensor Networks.

In this paper, the visual sensor coverage and deployment problem in occluded wireless visual sensor network (WVSN) is studied. A new occlusion probability model is proposed to compute the occlusion probability from the fixed obstacles and the moving obstacles. Based on this occlusion probability model, an optimization formulation is developed, and then, a novel heuristic algorithm (FoVIC) is devis...
