title = "The bimodal probability density distribution of the survivability for wireless sensor networks under random failures",
abstract = "The survivability is extremely important for the real applications of wireless sensor networks. It is interesting to note that the survivability itself is also stochastic under random failures. The bimodal probability density distribution of the network survivability and its negative influence are discussed in detail. It is shown that under random failures, either the wireless sensor network performs quite well, or it scarcely operates, which is usually unacceptable for some real applications of wireless sensor networks. Although the average of the survivability is valuable, its probability density distribution is more important to judge the sensing capacity of the sensor network under random failures.",
