| Shrnutí: | Wireless sensor networks are typically established in various areas of interest to observe phenomena, evaluate sensed data, and take appropriate action in response, which is embodied in 6G communications. To be able to do their jobs, which are getting increasingly complex, networks are combined with various emerging technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). These wireless IoT sensor networks frequently connect to many targets on the ground and process massive amounts of data over great distances. Each connectivity provides an association between mobile devices, and targets should be optimized due to the limited radio resources. This paper formulates a novel association problem to enhance sensing reliability. Mathematically, we minimize the number of mobile devices (MDs) activated to maintain the proper connectivity of individual targets. The constraint on a subset of activated MDs jointly serving a target makes a combinatorial problem whose global optimal solution can be obtained by the branch-and-bound method MTBB for small-scale networks. We propose effective designs based on the heuristic method and genetic algorithm that can find suboptimal solutions for large-scale networks with many MDs and targets. Numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms in finding the global optimum and assigning MDs to maintain connection quality in the networks. |
