Abstract: In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), to provide each point at least K-coverage is called K-coverage solution. We are proposing the solution for K-coverage by using bi-directional sensors so that the data transmission in all directions can be reduced. The objective of the work is to provide a coverage solution in a sensor network by reducing energy consumption. This work is addressing the issue of how to make improvement in coverage using a directional sensor model. Further, the measures of directional sensors for a given coverage rate has been estimated. The coverage probability of the region of interest (ROI) for N directional sensors is being evaluated which is further used to recognise the ratio of bi-directional to omni-directional sensors. In our simulation, the effect of offset angle on, radius for multiple rounds have been estimated and shown in a result which reflects the promising improvement over the existing proposal.
