We address the Leader Election (LE) problem in networks of anonymous sensors sharing no kind of common coordinate system. The contribution of this paper is twofold: First, assuming n anonymous sensors agreeing on a common handedness (chirality) of their own coordinate system, we provide a complete characterization on the sensors positions to deterministically elect a leader. Our result holds for any n > 1, even if the n sensors have unlimited visibility and regardless of their capabilities, unbounded memory, mobility, and communication settings. Second, we show that this statement also holds assuming sensors without chirality provided that n is odd. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2007.
