Abstract: | In this paper, we investigate coverage control problem for mobile sensor networks. The novelty is to consider an anisotropic sensor model whose performance depends not only on the distance but also on the orientation to a target point. By adapting Lloyd algorithm, a distributed control law is derived. Aside from coverage, we also show that the control law guarantees collision avoidance between the agents. The performance of the control laws is demonstrated through not only numerical simulation but also experiments on a mobile robot test bed. |
