Based
on this model, autonomous deployment algorithms are proposed to redeploy the
robots to cover a larger area. The algorithm integrates graph theory with the virtual
potential field approach. The paper simulated all the proposed algorithms. The
simulation results have shown the efficacy and validity of the algorithms.
