Abstract:
Military Applications of Wireless Sensor Network in domains of maximizing security and gaining maximum benefits while attacking the opponent is a challenging and prominent area of research now-a-days. A commander’s goal in a battle field is not limited by securing his troops and the country but also to deliver proper commands to assault the enemies using the minimum number of resources. In this paper, we propose two efficient and low cost approximation algorithms—the maximum clique analysis and the maximum degree analysis techniques. Both of the techniques find the strategies of maximizing the destruction in a battlefield to defeat the opponent by utilizing limited resources. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms in the prescribed areas of applications. Gaining the cost-effectiveness of the algorithms are also major concerns of this research. A comparative study explaining the number of resources required for commencing required level of destruction made to the opponents has been provided in this paper. The studies show that the maximum degree analysis technique is able to perform more destruction than the maximum clique analysis technique using same number of resources and requires relatively less computational complexity as well.
