Research on mobile strategy of anchor node based on weighted virtual force model by Lian-suo WEI, Shao-bin CAI, Shi PAN

“…The existing mobility strategy of the anchor node in wireless sensor network (WSN) has the shortcomings of too long moving path and low positioning accuracy when the anchor node traverses the network voids area.A new mobility strategy of WSN anchor node was proposed based on an improved virtual forces model.The number of neighbor nodes and the distance between the neighbor nodes to the anchor nodes were introduced as their own dense weight attributes.The unknown nodes intensity was used as weights to improve the traditional virtual force model.Meantime the distance-measuring error ε was taken into account.The optimal distribution,direction selection,shift step length and fallback strategy of anchor node could be analyzed by the trilateration.Using the number of virtual beacon received by the unknown node and the distance between the unknown node to the anchor node calculate the virtual force.Then according to the virtual force,the direction was chosen and the anchor nodes were moved.Simulation experiments show that the strategy can make the anchor nodes move according to the specific circumstances of unknown node distribution.It has a high positioning accuracy and strong adaptability.It can successfully shorten the path of the anchor node movement and reduce the number of virtual beacon.Moreover it can effectively avoid the anchor node to enter the network voids area and reduce the number of collinear virtual anchor nodes.…”

Dynamics of a Filippov epidemic model with limited hospital beds by Aili Wang, Yanni Xiao, Huaiping Zhu

“…A Filippov epidemic model is proposed to explore the impact of capacity and limited resources of public health system on the control of epidemic diseases. The number of infected cases is chosen as an index to represent a threshold policy, that is, the capacity dependent treatment policy is implemented when the case number exceeds a critical level, and constant treatment rate is adopted otherwise. …”
