A sensor network generally consists of large number of sensor nodes which are deployed either inside the phenomenon or very close to it. Large scale 2D/3D sensor networks generally have irregular and complex topological structures. The traditional algorithms that are in use currently works well in convex geometry rather than in concave regions. Generally the existing segmentation algorithms are based on concave node detection that results in sensitivity of performance to boundary noise. In this work, the complex network is segmented into simple convex regions using connectivity based segmentation in large scale 2D/3D networks – CONSEL algorithm. The CONSEL is a scalable and distributed algorithm that is designed based on Morse function and convex components in Reeb graph of a network. The algorithm makes use of only connectivity information for segmentation. Firstly the boundary nodes in the network flood the region to construct the reeb graph. Then the mutex pairs are computed by the ordinary nodes in the region and coarse segmentation is done locally. The neighboring regions that are not mutex pairs are then merged together. It has both 2D and 3D segmentation capability. The traditional algorithm like greedy routing or geographic routing is thus adapted into a complex large scale 2D/3D environment.

Large scale 2D/3D sensor networks generally have complex irregular geometry, in which traditional algorithms does not exhibit optimum performance. The observed parameters such as like Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), Signal-to-Noise Ratio, and energy consumption, from simulations of geographic routing as well as routing with help of CONSEL algorithm, indicated that traditional algorithms like geographic routing cannot be used to guarantee efficient routing in such large scale complex networks. The Greedy algorithms cannot resolve such dead-end or local minimum situation as in network concavities. Even techniques like convex segmentation fails to deliver accurate results due to the dependence of the routing and localization techniques on concave node detection. The CONSEL is a scalable and distributed algorithm that segments the network based on connectivity information alone and performs routing and localization with better accuracy. With this technique traditional algorithms like greedy routing and geographic routing are adapted into a large scale complex 2-D/3-D environment.
