Abstract

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are used in several applications such as healthcare devices, aerospace systems, automobile industry, security monitoring. However, WSNs have several challenges to improve the efficiency, robustness, failure tolerance and reliability of these sensors. Thus, cooperation between sensors is an important deal that increases sensor trust. Cooperative WSNs can be used to optimize the exploration of an unknown area in a distributed way. In this paper, the distributed Markovian model strategy that is used due to their past state-dependent reasoning. Moreover, the exploration strategy depends totally on the wireless communication protocol. Hence, in this paper, we propose an efficient cooperative strategy based on cognitive radio and software-defined radio which are promising technologies that increase spectral utilization and optimize the use of radio resources. We implement a distributed exploration strategy (DES) in mobile robots, and several experiments have been performed to localize targets while avoiding obstacles. Experiments were performed with several exploration robots. A comparison with another exploration strategy shows that DES improves the robots exploration.
