Abstract: Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) usually works in three-dimensional space, and therefore requires coverage algorithms for three-dimensional space. In this paper, the authors analyzed the coverage algorithm, Stand Guard Algorithm (SGA) in two-dimensional space, and then integrated the characteristics of threedimensional space to improve it, finally proposed a new coverage algorithm SSG in three-dimensional space. The algorithm SSG is a location-free algorithm, and its quality of service is examined by simulations.
