Energy Adaptive Collaborative Charging Scheduling for Wireless Rechargeable Sensor Networks by Kun Wang, Zhejun Shen

“…Next, we use the hierarchical clustering algorithm to establish the charging groups based on the network topology, and determine the collection of the sensor nodes that can be charged simultaneously, improving the rationality of the charging locations. Next, we design a hybrid algorithm of the mean-shift and hierarchical clustering algorithm to cluster the charging groups into the charging zones, which ensures the compactness of the sensor nodes in each charging zone and the balance of the charging load distribution. …”
