Abstract—Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is considered the basis of all architectures of IoT applications. Those networks are deployed according to the needs of each domain. The goals of the proposed approaches of deployment are the lifetime maximization of each device. The major challenge is to find a tradeoff between desired requirements for the lifetime, coverage and cost with limited available resources. In this paper, we present a new method for the deployment of WSN that tries to increase the lifetime of the network. A set of optimum position are presented after their calculation using a GPS. The objective is to locate our sensors in these optimum positions. We try to minimize the energy consumption by decreasing the distance
