Multi-radius geographical spatial networks: Statistical characteristics and application to wireless sensor networks

In this paper, a new kind of complex network model named multi-radius geographical spatial networks is proposed. We investigate statistical characteristics of this model and then map wireless sensor networks (WSNs) to it based on an efficient mechanism of broadcasting radius adjustment. Analysis and simulation show that WSNs working under this mechanism obtain longer lifetime and faster data delivering speed than those in traditional uniform radius WSNs.
