An Enhanced Particle Swarm Optimization-Based Node Deployment and Coverage in Sensor Networks.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Positioning, coverage, and connectivity play important roles in next-generation wireless network applications. The coverage in a wireless sensor network (WSN) is a measure of how effectively a region of interest (ROI) is monitored and targets are detected by the sensor nodes. The random deployment of sensor nodes results in poor coverage in WSNs. Additionally, battery depletion at the sensor nodes creates coverage holes in the ROI and affects network coverage. To enhance the coverage, determining the optimal position of the sensor nodes in the ROI is essential. The objective of this study is to define the optimal locations of sensor nodes prior to their deployment in the given network terrain and to increase the coverage area using the proposed version of an enhanced particle swarm optimization (EPSO) algorithm for different frequency bands. The EPSO algorithm avoids the deployment of sensor nodes in close proximity to each other and ensures that every target is covered by at least one sensor node. It applies a probabilistic coverage model based on the Euclidean distances to detect the coverage holes in the initial deployment of sensor nodes and guarantees a higher coverage probability. Delaunay triangulation (DT) helps to enhance the coverage of a given network terrain in the presence of targets. The combination of EPSO and DT is applied to cover the holes and optimize the position of the remaining sensor nodes in the WSN. The fitness function of the EPSO algorithm yielded converged results with the average number of iterations of 78, 82, and 80 at 3.6 GHz, 26 GHz, and 38 GHz frequency bands, respectively. The results of the sensor deployment and coverage showed that the required coverage conditions were met with a communication radius of 4 m compared with 6-120 m with the existing works.
