The approach of using topology control to reduce interference in wireless sensor networks has attracted attention of many researchers. There are several definitions of interference in the literature. In a wireless sensor network, the interference at a node may be caused by an edge that is transmitting data [16], or it occurs because the node itself is within the transmission range of another [2], [4], [7]. The interference load of a node is either the number of nodes in the broadcasting disk defined by this node or the number of nodes whose disks cover it [2], [4], [7]. In this paper we show that the problem of assigning power level to a set of nodes in the plane to yield a connected geometric graph whose total node interference is bounded is NP-complete under both definitions. We also introduce some heuristics as well as a simplified version of an
