Abstract: This paper presents a bio-inspired networking strategy to support the cooperation between static sensors on the ground and mobile sensors in the air to perform surveillance missions in large areas. The goal of the proposal is to provide low overhead in the communication among sensor nodes, while allocating the mobile sensors to perform sensing activities requested by the static ones. Simulations have shown that the strategy is efficient in maintaining low overhead and achieving the desired coordination.
Edison et al. REF presented a bio-inspired networking strategy to allow the cooperation of static sensors on the ground and multiple mobile sensors in the air, applied to the scenario of large areas surveillance.
