Abstract
Existing algorithms for orienting sensors in directional sensor networks have primarily concerned themselves with the problem of maximizing the number of covered targets, assuming that target identification is a non-issue. Such an assumption however, does not hold true in all situations. In this paper, heuristic algorithms for choosing active sensors and orienting them with the goal of balancing coverage and identifiability are presented. The performance of the algorithms are verified via extensive simulations, and shown to confer increased target identifiability compared to algorithms originally designed to simply maximize the number of targets covered.
