Abstract

The chapter addresses the issue of Wireless Sensor Network planning (in fact - well applicable to any mesh network design) for achieving a network structure of minimized intra-network interference and reliability. The former feature can be attained by means of directional antennas, which - in combination with a planar topology - leads to a considerable increase in the average SNIR level. The latter feature is to provide a structure of sensor nodes resistant to single-node failures, deployed with the minimum-pathloss criterion for better radio performance.
