Abstract

A Wireless Sensor and Actor Network (WSAN) is a group of wireless devices with the ability to sense physical events (sensors) or/and to perform relatively complicated actions (actors), based on the sensed data shared by sensors. This paper presents design and implementation of a simulation system based on Deep Q-Network (DQN) for actor node mobility control in WSANs. DQN is a deep neural network structure used for estimation of Q-value of the Q-learning method. We implemented the proposed simulating system by Rust programming language. We evaluated the performance of proposed system for normal and uniform distributions of events considering three-dimensional environment. For this scenario, the simulation results show that for normal distribution of events and the best episode all actor nodes are connected.
