The multi-input multi-output (MIMO) communication framework is adopted for wireless sensor networks by having multiple sensors
equipped with single-element antennas cooperate in transmission. A power method-based iterative algorithm is developed that
computes the optimal transmit and receive eigen-filters distributively among the sensors while transferring most of the computational
burden to the central collector node. Since the proposed algorithm implicitly exploits the channel state information (CSI)
both at the receiver and the transmitter, it is expected that the resulting spectral efficiency is higher than what can be
achieved by receive CSI-only space-time coding. This intuition is confirmed by employing a variable-rate adaptive modulation
scheme for the eigen-transmission and comparing its spectral efficiency with that of orthogonal space time block codes (OSTBCs)
at specific target bit error rates. The performance is also evaluated using realistic channel estimation as well as the least
mean square (LMS) and recursive least square (RLS) algorithms for iterative eigencoding.

In wireless sensor networks, efficiently disseminating data from a dynamic source to multiple mobile sinks is important for
the applications such as mobile target detection and tracking. The tree-based multicasting scheme can be used. However, because
of the short communication range of each sensor node and the frequent movement of sources and sinks, a sink may fail to receive
data due to broken paths, and the tree should be frequently reconfigured to reconnect sources and sinks. To address the problem,
we propose a dynamic proxy tree-based framework in this paper. A big challenge in implementing the framework is how to efficiently reconfigure the proxy tree as sources and sinks change. We model the problem as on-line constructing a minimum Steiner tree in an Euclidean plane, and
propose centralized schemes to solve it. Considering the strict energy constraints in wireless sensor networks, we further
propose two distributed on-line schemes, the shortest path-based (SP) scheme and the spanning range-based (SR) scheme. Extensive simulations are conducted to evaluate the schemes. The results show that the distributed schemes have similar
performance as the centralized ones, and among the distributed schemes, the SR scheme outperforms the SP scheme. 相似文献

A novel Automatic repeat ReQuest (ARQ) protocol called cooperative ARQ is presented in this letter, where a relay terminal is requested to retransmit an erroneously received packet, instead of the source terminal. The data link layer Packet Error Rate (PER) performance of cooperative ARQ is derived in correlated wireless channel. The results show that even though the relay-destination channel is worse than the sourcedestination channel, the new protocol outperforms the traditional one as long as the average SNR of the relaydestination channel is better than a certain threshold. It is also demonstrated that a second order diversity gain can be achieved with the cooperative ARQ protocol. 相似文献

Multi-radio diversity in wireless networks 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This paper describes the Multi-Radio Diversity (MRD) wireless system, which uses path diversity to improve loss resilience in wireless local area networks (WLANs). MRD
coordinates wireless receptions among multiple radios to improve loss resilience in the face of path-dependent frame corruption
over the radio. MRD incorporates two techniques to recover from bit errors and lower the loss rates observed by higher layers,
without consuming much extra bandwidth. The first technique is frame combining, in which multiple, possibly erroneous, copies of a given frame are combined together in an attempt to recover the frame
without retransmission. The second technique is a low-overhead retransmission scheme called request-for-acknowledgment (RFA), which operates above the link layer and below the network layer to attempt to recover from frame combining failures. We
present an analysis that determines how the parameters for these algorithms should be chosen.
We have designed and implemented MRD as a fully functional WLAN infrastructure based on 802.11a. We evaluate the MRD system
under several different physical configurations, using both UDP and TCP, and measured throughput gains up to 3× over single
radio communication schemes employing 802.11’s autorate adaptation scheme.

This paper demonstrates the advantages of using controlled mobility in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) for increasing their
lifetime, i.e., the period of time the network is able to provide its intended functionalities. More specifically, for WSNs
that comprise a large number of statically placed sensor nodes transmitting data to a collection point (the sink), we show
that by controlling the sink movements we can obtain remarkable lifetime improvements. In order to determine sink movements,
we first define a Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) analytical model whose solution determines those sink routes that
maximize network lifetime. Our contribution expands further by defining the first heuristics for controlled sink movements
that are fully distributed and localized. Our Greedy Maximum Residual Energy (GMRE) heuristic moves the sink from its current location to a new site as if drawn toward the area where nodes have the
highest residual energy. We also introduce a simple distributed mobility scheme (Random Movement or RM) according to which the sink moves uncontrolled and randomly throughout the network. The different mobility schemes
are compared through extensive ns2-based simulations in networks with different nodes deployment, data routing protocols,
and constraints on the sink movements. In all considered scenarios, we observe that moving the sink always increases network
lifetime. In particular, our experiments show that controlling the mobility of the sink leads to remarkable improvements,
which are as high as sixfold compared to having the sink statically (and optimally) placed, and as high as twofold compared
to uncontrolled mobility.

Location and calculation-free node-scheduling schemes in large wireless sensor networks 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In wireless sensor networks that consist of a large number of low-power, short-lived, unreliable sensors, one of the main design challenges is to obtain long system lifetime without sacrificing system original performance (sensing coverage and sensing reliability). To solve this problem, one of the potential approaches is to identify redundant nodes at the sensing interface and then assign them an off-duty operation mode that has lower energy consumption than the normal on-duty mode. In our previous work [J. Wireless Commun. Mobile Comput. 3 (2003) 271; Processing of ACM Wireless Sensor Network and Application Workshop 2002, September 2002], we proposed a node-scheduling scheme, which can provide a 100% sensing coverage preservation capability. This, however, requires each node to be aware of its own and its neighbors’ location information. Also, in that scheme, each node has to do accurate geometrical calculation to determine whether to take an off-duty status. In this paper, we propose and study several alternative node-scheduling schemes, which cannot completely preserve the original system coverage, but are nonetheless light-weighted and flexible compared with the previous one. Our simulation results compare these schemes with the previous one and demonstrate their effectiveness. 相似文献

Cooperative communication is a promising technique for future wireless networks. It can be used in improving communication reliability and enhancing spectrum efficiency by using the broadcast nature of radio communication and exploiting cooperative diversity. However, its performance gain degrades in the presence of co‐channel interference, which makes it essential to propose interference mitigation schemes. In this paper, we introduce three cooperative communication schemes with interference management for multi‐user cooperative wireless networks. The first scheme (best relay selection) is used as a performance benchmark because it completely avoids the interference problem by using the Frequency‐Division Multiple Access technique. The second scheme (best available relay selection) maximizes the received signal‐to‐noise ratio while keeping the interference levels below a certain threshold, and the third scheme (General Order Relay and User Selection) is based on iterative resource allocation algorithm. We derive exact closed‐form expressions of average bit error probability, outage probability, and average consumed power for the proposed schemes. Simulations are used to validate the analytical results. The results confirm the advantage of the proposed cooperation schemes in enhancing the system performance and improving the interference management. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Relay sensor placement in wireless sensor networks 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
This paper addresses the following relay sensor placement problem: given the set of duty sensors in the plane and the upper
bound of the transmission range, compute the minimum number of relay sensors such that the induced topology by all sensors
is globally connected. This problem is motivated by practically considering the tradeoff among performance, lifetime, and
cost when designing sensor networks. In our study, this problem is modelled by a NP-hard network optimization problem named
Steiner Minimum Tree with Minimum number of Steiner Points and bounded edge length (SMT-MSP). In this paper, we propose two approximate algorithms, and conduct detailed performance analysis. The first algorithm has
a performance ratio of 3 and the second has a performance ratio of 2.5.

We investigate the problem of how to minimize the energy consumption in multi-hop Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), under the constraint of end-to-end reliability Quality of Seervice (QoS) requirement. Based on the investigation, we jointly consider the routing, relay selection and power allocation algorithm, and present a novel distributed cross-layer strategy using opportunistic relaying scheme for cooperative communication. The results show that under the same QoS requirement, the proposed cross-layer strategy performs better than other cross-layer cooperative communication algorithms in energy efficiency. We also investigated the impact of several parameters on the energy efficiency of the cooperative communication in WSNs, thus can be used to provide guidelines to decide when and how to apply cooperation for a given setup. 相似文献

In this paper, we describe an impulse-based ultra wideband (UWB) radio system for wireless sensor network (WSN) applications. Different architectures have been studied for base station and sensor nodes. The base station node uses coherent UWB architecture because of the high performance and good sensitivity requirements. However, to meet complexity, power and cost constraints, the sensor module uses a novel non-coherent architecture that can autonomously detect the UWB signals. The radio modules include a transceiver block, a baseband processing unit and a power management block. The transceiver block includes a Gaussian pulse generator, a multiplier, an integrator and timing circuits. For long range applications, a wideband low noise amplifier (LNA) is included in the transceiver of the sensor module, whereas in short range applications it is simply eliminated to further reduce the power consumption. In order to verify the proposed system concept, circuit level implementation is studied using 1.5 V 0.18 μm CMOS technology. Finally, the UWB radio modules have been designed for implementation in liquid-crystal-polymer (LCP) based System-on-Package (SoP) technology for low power, low cost and small size integration. A small low cost, double-slotted, Knight’s helm antenna is embedded in the LCP substrate, which shows stable characterization and a return loss better than ?10 dB over the UWB band. 相似文献

This paper proposes an approach called PC-CORP (Power Control based Cooperative Opportunistic Routing Protocol) for WSN (Wireless Sensor Networks), providing robustness to the random variations in network connectivity while ensuring better data forwarding efficiency in an energy efficient manner. Based on the realistic radio model, we combine the region-based routing, rendezvous scheme, sleep discipline and cooperative communication together to model data forwarding by cross layer design in WSN. At the same time, a lightweight transmission power control algorithm called PC-AIMD (Power Control Additive Increase Multiplicative Decrease) is introduced to utilize the cooperation of relay nodes to improve the forwarding efficiency performance and increase the robustness of the routing protocol. In the simulation, the performance of PC-COPR is investigated in terms of the adaptation of variations in network connectivity and satisfying the QoS requirements of application. 相似文献

We construct cooperative diversity coding schemes that mitigate the effects of symbol asynchronicity among network users.
We do so by modifying, at the expense of implementation practicality, the signaling complexity of well behaved existing schemes.
The modification allows the same good performance (DMT optimality) in the presence of synchronicity, and almost-surely permits
full-diversity gains for any event of symbol asynchronicity.

This paper presents the ECCE protocol, a new distributed, probabilistic, cooperative protocol to establish a secure pair-wise communication channel between any pair of sensors in a wireless sensor network (WSN). The main contributions of the ECCE protocol are: to allow the set-up of a secure channel between two sensors (principals) that do not share any pre-deployed key. This feature is obtained involving a set of sensors (cooperators) in the channel establishment protocol; to provide probabilistic authentication of the principals as well as the cooperators. In particular, the probability for the attacker to break authentication check decreases exponentially with the number of cooperators involved; to trade off the memory space required to store the pre-deployed encryption keys with the number of cooperators involved in the protocol. Hence, memory storage can be used to store keys built with the ECCE protocol, which helps amortizing the (limited) overhead incurred in the ECCE key set-up; to be adaptive to the level of threat the WSN is subject to. We provide analytical analysis and extensive simulations of ECCE, which show that the proposed solution increases both the probability of a secure channel set-up and the probability of channel resilience with respect to other protocols. 相似文献

For the redundancy coverage of nodes leads to the phenomenon of low energy efficiency,Non-cooperative game theory was used to solve it.A revenue function was proposed,which considering the coverage of nodes and the residual energy.The lifetime of the node and network path gain were applied to revenue function.The network topology was built by nodes with the appropriate work strategy.Control algorithm coverage in wireless sensor network was proposed based on Non-cooperative game theory.A Nash equilibrium between the coverage rate and the residual energy was proved,and the return function converged to the Pareto optimal.Experiments show that the algorithm can provide reasonable coverage of network nodes and ensure energy efficiency. 相似文献

This paper aims at synchronisation between the sensor nodes. Indeed, in the context of wireless sensor networks, it is necessary to take into consideration the energy cost induced by the synchronisation, which can represent the majority of the energy consumed. On communication, an already identified hard point consists in imagining a fine synchronisation protocol which must be sufficiently robust to the intermittent energy in the sensors. Hence, this paper worked on aspects of performance and energy saving, in particular on the optimisation of the synchronisation protocol using cross-layer design method such as synchronisation between layers. Our approach consists in balancing the energy consumption between the sensors and choosing the cluster head with the highest residual energy in order to guarantee the reliability, integrity and continuity of communication (i.e. maximising the network lifetime). 相似文献

Wireless sensor networks (WSN) are formed by network-enabled sensors spatially randomly distributed over an area. Because the number of nodes in the WSNs is usually large, channel reuse must be applied, keeping co-channel nodes sufficiently separated geographically to achieve
satisfactory SIR level. The most efficient channel reuse configuration for WSN has been determined and the worst-interference scenario has been identified. For this channel reuse pattern and worst-case
scenario, the minimum co-channel separation distance consistent with an SIR level constraint is derived. Our results show that the two-hop co-channel separations often assumed for sensor and ad hoc
networks are not sufficient to guarantee communications. Minimum co-channel separation curves given various parameters are
also presented. The results in this paper provide theoretical basis for channel spatial reuse and medium access control for
WSN s and also serve as a guideline for how channel assignment algorithms should allocate channels. Furthermore, because the
derived co-channel separation is a function of the sensor transmission radius, it also provides a connection between network
data transport capacity planning and network topology control which is administered by varying transmission powers.

Wireless sensor and actor networks (WSANs) have been increasingly popular for environmental monitoring applications in the last decade. While the deployment of sensor nodes enables a fine granularity of data collection, resource-rich actor nodes provide further evaluation of the information and reaction. Quality of service (QoS) and routing solutions for WSANs are challenging compared to traditional networks because of the limited node resources. WSANs also have different QoS requirements than wireless sensor networks (WSNs) since actors and sensor nodes have distinct resource constraints.In this paper, we present, LRP-QS, a lightweight routing protocol with dynamic interests and QoS support for WSANs. LRP-QS provides QoS by differentiating the rates among different types of interests with dynamic packet tagging at sensor nodes and per flow management at actor nodes. The interests, which define the types of events to observe, are distributed in the network. The weights of the interests are determined dynamically by using a nonsensitive ranking algorithm depending on the variation in the observed values of data collected in response to interests. Our simulation studies show that the proposed protocol provides a higher packet delivery ratio and a lower memory consumption than the existing state of the art protocols. 相似文献

In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), broadcast authentication is a crucial security mechanism that allows a multitude of legitimate users to join in and disseminate messages into the networks in a dynamic and authenticated way. During the past few years, several public-key based multi-user broadcast authentication schemes have been proposed to achieve immediate authentication and to address the security vulnerability intrinsic to μTESLA-like schemes. Unfortunately, the relatively slow signature verification in signature-based broadcast authentication has also incurred a series of problems such as high energy consumption and long verification delay. In this contribution, we propose an efficient technique to accelerate the signature verification in WSNs through the cooperation among sensor nodes. By allowing some sensor nodes to release the intermediate computation results to their neighbors during the signature verification, a large number of sensor nodes can accelerate their signature verification process significantly. When applying our faster signature verification technique to the broadcast authentication in a 4 × 4 grid-based WSN, a quantitative performance analysis shows that our scheme needs 17.7-34.5% less energy and runs about 50% faster than the traditional signature verification method. The efficiency of the proposed technique has been tested through an experimental study on a network of MICAz motes. 相似文献

A precise localization for mobile target in wireless sensor networks is presented in this letter,where a geometrical relationship is explored to improve the location estimation for mobile target,instead of a simple centroid approach.The equations of location compensation algorithm for mobile target are derived based on linear trajectory prediction and sensor selective activation.The results based on extensive simulation experiments show that the compensation algorithm gets better performance in metrics of quality of tracking and energy efficiency with the change of sensor sensing range,the ratio of sensing range and sensor activation range,and the data sampling rate than traditional methods,which means our proposing can achieve better quality-energy tradeoff for mobile target in wireless sensor networks. 相似文献
