Abstract:  This paper proposes the virtual force and fruit fly optimization (VFFO) algorithm which consists of the improved virtual force and fruit fly optimization methods. The algorithm firstly optimizes the initial deployment by virtual force to get a better initial deployment status, then the improved fruit fly optimization algorithm is used to redeploy the sensor networks. Moreover, the energy consumption of the deployment is analysed. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can achieve a higher effective coverage rate with the same energy consumption.
