Coverage control is one of fundamental problems in wireless sensor network applications, which reflects how well a region is apperceived. The coverage control theories and algorithms can result in not only network resources' optimal allocation but also efficient sensing and collecting of the environmental information, and communicating with neighboring nodes by wireless sensor networks. In this paper, the coverage control problem is captured. Some recent novel theories and algorithms for wireless sensor networks coverage control problems in the domestic and foreign are analyzed, and some problems to be solved are pointed out on the sensor network coverage algorithm. In the end, one open research issues for dynamic coverage control technology with a multi梠bjective evolutionary algorithm and intelligent computing in this field is put forward.%覆盖控制是无线传感器网络应用的一个基本问题,反映了网络所能提供的“感知”服务质量,可以使无线传感器网络的空间资源得到优化分配,进而更好地完成环境感知、信息获取和有效传输的任务；立足于无线传感器网络的覆盖控制问题,分析了网络覆盖技术在国内外研究的现状与发展,指出了传感器网络覆盖算法中需要解决的问题,并提出了将多目标进化算法与智能计算技术用于动态覆盖控制技术研究设想.
