The wireless sensor network (WSN) plays an essential role in various practical smart applications, e.g., smart grids, smart factories, Internet of Things, and smart homes, etc. WSNs are comprised and embedded wireless smart sensors. With advanced developments in wireless sensor networks research, sensors have been rapidly used in various fields. In the meantime, the WSN performance depends on the coverage ratio of the sensors being used. However, the coverage of sensors generally relates to their cost, which usually has a limit. Hence, a new bi-tuning simplified swarm optimization (SSO) is proposed that is based on the SSO to solve such a budget-limited WSN sensing coverage problem to maximize the number of coverage areas to improve the performance of WSNs. The proposed bi-tuning SSO enhances SSO by integrating the novel concept to tune both the SSO parameters and SSO update mechanism simultaneously. The performance and applicability of the proposed bi-tuning SSO using seven different parameter settings are demonstrated through an experiment involving nine WSN tests ranging from 20, 100, to 300 sensors. The proposed bi-tuning SSO outperforms two state-of-the-art algorithms: genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO), and can efficiently accomplish the goals of this work.
