覆盖性能是分布式传感器网络信息获取的基础。以往提出的覆盖方法主要是基于二维或三维空间的单位圆盘覆盖模型或球覆盖模型。然而，大多数方法不能给出一个均匀的覆盖模型的目标与混合类型。提出了一种基于Clifford代数的传感器网络覆盖分析方法，建立了混合类型目标传感器网络的均匀覆盖模型。实例证明了该方法的有效性。
The coverage performance is the foundation of information acquisition in distributed sensor networks. The previously proposed coverage work was mostly based on unit disk coverage model or ball coverage model in 2D or 3D space, respectively. However, most methods cannot give a homogeneous coverage model for targets with hybrid types. This paper presents a coverage analysis approach for sensor networks based on Clifford algebra and establishes a homogeneous coverage model for sensor networks with hybrid types of targets. The effectiveness of the approach is demonstrated with examples.
