摘要: In this paper, considering both cluster heads and sensor nodes, we propose a novel evolving network model based on the random walk to study the fault tolerance decrease of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) due to the node failure, and discuss the spreading dynamical behaviors of viruses in the evolution model. A theoretical analysis shows that the WSN generated by such an evolution model not only has a strong fault tolerance, but also can dynamically balance the energy loss of the entire network. It is also found that although the increase of the density of cluster heads in the network reduces the network efficiency, it can effectively inhibit the spread of viruses. In addition, the heterogeneity of the network improves the network efficiency and enhances the virus prevalence. We confirm all the theoretical results by sufficient numerical simulations.
