Efficient Scheduling of Multiple Mobile Chargers for Wireless Sensor Networks

In this paper, we study the deployment of multiple mobile charging vehicles to charge sensors in a large-scale wireless sensor network for a given monitoring period so that none of the sensors will run out of energy, where sensors can be charged by the charging vehicles with wireless energy transfer...
