Strong barrier path construction for directional sensor networks was focused on by optimizing the sensing orientations of directional sensors. The intersection point set and associated intersection point set were defined to describe the relationships between directional sensors and region boundaries. The solution space from continuous domain was reduced. Graph theory was utilized to construct a global barrier graph to model the pending problem, whether the directional sensors' sensing orientations are existed that can form strong barrier. A low-cost solution with the minimal number of directional sensors was designed as well. Simulation testifies the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
