Target tracking in wireless sensor networks is a well‐known application. In real life scenario, target mobility can be predicted using well‐known filters. In this paper, we explain an approach to model the pattern of movement of a target on the basis of target data available. This method utilizes filter techniques to predict the target and a curve‐fitting algorithm to model the mobility of a target in both linear and non‐linear motion patterns. Two alternate strategies to achieve mobility approximation have been proposed and compared. The efficacy of the algorithm is, further, adjudged by comparing its mobility prediction vis‐a‐vis the Kalman filter. Simulation results show that with sufficient data, the mobility pattern of the target can be fairly calculated even if the target moves unpredictably. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

In this paper, a clustering algorithm is proposed based on the high correlation among the overlapped field of views for the wireless multimedia sensor networks. Firstly, by calculating the area of the overlapped field of views (FoVs) based on the gird method, node correlations have been obtained. Then, the algorithm utilizes the node correlations to partition the network region in which there are high correlation multimedia sensor nodes. Meanwhile, in order to minimize the energy consumption for transmitting images, the strategy of the cluster heads election is proposed based on the cost estimation, which consists of signal strength and residual energy as well as the node correlation. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can balance the energy consumption and extend the network lifetime effectively. 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.

With sensor networks on the verge of deployment, security issues pertaining to the sensor networks are in the limelight. Though the security in sensor networks share many characteristics with wireless ad hoc networks, the two fields are rapidly diverging due to the fundamental differences between the make‐up and goals of the two types of networks. Perhaps the greatest dividing difference is the energy and computational abilities. Sensor nodes are typically smaller, less powerful, and more prone to failure than nodes in an ad hoc network. These differences indicate that protocols that are valid in the context of ad‐hoc networks may not be directly applicable for sensor networks. In this paper, we survey the state of art in securing wireless sensor networks. We review several protocols that provide security in sensor networks, with an emphasis on authentication, key management and distribution, secure routing, and methods for intrusion detection.

Recent advances in electronics and wireless communication technologies have enabled the development of large-scale wireless sensor networks that consist of many low-power, low-cost, and small-size sensor nodes. Sensor networks hold the promise of facilitating large-scale and real-time data processing in complex environments. Security is critical for many sensor network applications, such as military target tracking and security monitoring. To provide security and privacy to small sensor nodes is challenging, due to the limited capabilities of sensor nodes in terms of computation, communication, memory/storage, and energy supply. In this article we survey the state of the art in research on sensor network security. 相似文献

Anomaly detection in wireless sensor networks is an important challenge for tasks such as fault diagnosis, intrusion detection, and monitoring applications. The algorithms developed for anomaly detection have to consider the inherent limitations of sensor networks in their design so that the energy consumption in sensor nodes is minimized and the lifetime of the network is maximized. In this survey article we analyze the state of the art in anomaly detection techniques for wireless sensor networks and discuss some open issues for research. 相似文献

In scenarios where sensors are placed randomly, redundant deployment is essential for ensuring adequate field coverage. This redundancy needs to be efficiently exploited by periodically selecting a subset of nodes (referred to as a “cover”) that actively monitor the field, and putting the remaining nodes to sleep. We consider networks in which sensors are not aware of their locations or the relative directions of their neighbors. We develop several geometric and density-based tests that enable a location-unaware sensor to intelligently determine whether it should turn itself off without degrading the quality of field coverage. These tests rely on distance measurements and exchanged two-hop neighborhood information. We design an algorithm (LUC) that exploits these tests for computing covers. Based on this algorithm, we propose two distributed protocols (LUC-I and LUC-P) that periodically select covers and switch between them so as to extend the network lifetime and tolerate unexpected failures. Our protocols are highly efficient in terms of message overhead and processing complexity. We implement LUC-I in TinyOS and evaluate it using the TOSSIM simulator. Experimental results indicate that our approach significantly prolongs the network lifetime and achieves comparable performance to location-aware protocols. 相似文献

The progress of development on sensor networks has inspired many new applications. Some of these applications require the target to be observed by more than one sensors simultaneously. Sensor coverage, which reflects how well a sensor network is monitored by sensors, is an important measure for the quality of service (QoS) that a sensor network can provide. In this paper, we addressed the coverage problem from two different view points and referred to them as the worst-case and best-case coverage problems. Most existing works on these two problems assumed that the coverage degree is one (i.e. the target area falls within the sensing range of at least one sensor). In this paper, we address the k-coverage problem, where the coverage degree is a user-defined parameter k. This is a generalization of the earlier work where only k=1 is assumed. By combining geometric and algorithmic techniques, we establish optimal algorithms to solve the two variants of the k-coverage problem in polynomial time. An important extension of our study on the k-coverage problem was also proposed: the distributed algorithm for the problem. This helps in applying the proposed algorithm under more practical scenarios. 相似文献

Multimedia communication in wireless sensor networks 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The technological advances in Micro ElectroMechanical Systems (Mems) and wireless communications have enabled the realization of wireless sensor networks (Wsn) comprised of large number of low-cost, low-power, multifunctional sensor nodes. These tiny sensor nodes communicate in short distances and collaboratively work toward fulfilling the application specific objectives ofWsn. However, realization of wide range of envisionedWsn applications necessitates effective communication protocols which can address the unique challenges posed by theWsn paradigm. Since many of these envisioned applications may also involve in collecting information in the form of multimedia such as audio, image, and video; additional challenges due to the unique requirements of multimedia delivery overWsn, e.g., diverse reliability requirements, time constraints, high bandwidth demands, must be addressed as well. Thus far, vast majority of the research efforts has been focused on addressing the problems of conventional data communication inWsn. Therefore, there exists an urgent need for research on the problems of multimedia communication inWsn. In this paper, a survey of the research challenges and the current status of the literature on the multimedia communication inWsn is presented. More specifically, the multimediaWsn applications, factors influencing multimedia delivery overWsn, currently proposed solutions in application, transport, and network layers, are pointed out along with their shortcomings and open research issues. 相似文献

Since energy is scarce in sensor nodes, wireless sensor networks aim to transmit as few packets as possible. To achieve this goal, sensor protocols often aggregate measured data from multiple sensor nodes into a single packet. In this paper, a survey of aggregation techniques and methods is given. Based on this survey, it is concluded that there are currently several dependencies between the aggregation method and the behavior of the other network layers. As a result, existing aggregation methods can often not be combined with different routing protocols. To remedy this shortcoming, the paper introduces a new ‘non-intrusive’ aggregation approach which is independent of the routing protocol. The proposed aggregation method is evaluated and compared to traditional aggregation approaches using a large-scale sensor testbed of 200 TMoteSky sensor nodes. Our experimental results indicate that existing aggregation approaches are only suited for a limited set of network scenarios. In addition, it is shown both mathematically and experimentally that our approach outperforms existing non-intrusive techniques in a wide range of scenarios. 相似文献

Fault management in wireless sensor networks 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have gradually emerged as one of the key growth areas for pervasive computing in the twenty-first century. Recent advances in WSN technologies have made possible the development of new wireless monitoring and environmental control applications. However, the nature of these applications and harsh environments also created significant challenges for sensor networks to maintain a high quality of service in potentially harsh environments. Therefore, efficient fault management and robust management architectures have become essential for WSNs. In this article, we address these challenges by surveying existing fault management approaches for WSNs. We divide the fault management process into three phases: fault detection, diagnosis, and recovery and classify existing approaches according to these phases. Finally, we outline future challenges for fault management in WSNs. 相似文献

Access control in wireless sensor networks 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Nodes in a sensor network may be lost due to power exhaustion or malicious attacks. To extend the lifetime of the sensor network, new node deployment is necessary. In military scenarios, adversaries may directly deploy malicious nodes or manipulate existing nodes to introduce malicious “new” nodes through many kinds of attacks. To prevent malicious nodes from joining the sensor network, access control is required in the design of sensor network protocols. In this paper, we propose an access control protocol based on Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) for sensor networks. Our access control protocol accomplishes node authentication and key establishment for new nodes. Different from conventional authentication methods based on the node identity, our access control protocol includes both the node identity and the node bootstrapping time into the authentication procedure. Hence our access control protocol cannot only identify the identity of each node but also differentiate between old nodes and new nodes. In addition, each new node can establish shared keys with its neighbors during the node authentication procedure. Compared with conventional sensor network security solutions, our access control protocol can defend against most well-recognized attacks in sensor networks, and achieve better computation and communication performance due to the more efficient algorithms based on ECC than those based on RSA. 相似文献

Two new incremental models for online anomaly detection in data streams at nodes in wireless sensor networks are discussed. These models are incremental versions of a model that uses ellipsoids to detect first, second, and higher‐ordered anomalies in arrears. The incremental versions can also be used this way but have additional capabilities offered by processing data incrementally as they arrive in time. Specifically, they can detect anomalies ‘on‐the‐fly’ in near real time. They can also be used to track temporal changes in near real‐time because of sensor drift, cyclic variation, or seasonal changes. One of the new models has a mechanism that enables graceful degradation of inputs in the distant past (fading memory). Three real datasets from single sensors in deployed environmental monitoring networks are used to illustrate various facets of the new models. Examples compare the incremental version with the previous batch and dynamic models and show that the incremental versions can detect various types of dynamic anomalies in near real time.

The operation principles of wireless body-area networks (WBANs) and requirements to their infrastructure are described. The new IEEE 802.15.6 WBAN standard, in which an ultrawideband (UWB) signal is used as an information carrier, is discussed. The general properties of the given standard and its distinctions from the existing wireless personal communications standards are analyzed. It is demonstrated that UWB direct chaotic transceivers are promising for use in the wireless sensor networks based on the new standard. 相似文献

On the lifetime of wireless sensor networks 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

We derive a general formula for the lifetime-of wireless sensor networks which holds independently of the underlying network model including network architecture and protocol, data collection initiation, lifetime definition, channel fading characteristics, and energy consumption model. This formula identifies two key parameters at the physical layer that affect the network lifetime: the channel state and the residual energy of sensors. As a result, it provides not only a gauge for performance evaluation of sensor networks but also a guideline for the design of network protocols. Based on this formula, we propose a medium access control protocol that exploits both the channel state information and the residual energy information of individual sensors. Referred to as the max-min approach, this protocol maximizes the minimum residual energy across the network in each data collection. 相似文献

ABSTRACTEnergy harvesting (EH) is an eminent solution to perpetuate the lifetime of energy-constrained relay nodes in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). This paper considers a multi-hop amplify-and-forward (AF) network in which relay nodes with EH capability harvest energy inherent in the source transmitted radio frequency (RF) signal and use the harvested energy for signal transmission. Based on the time switching and power splitting EH receiver designs, we have examined the performance of, (i) time switching based relaying (TSR) and (ii) power splitting based relaying (PSR) protocols in multi-hop AF network, with throughput as the figure of merit. The numerical analysis reveals that, PSR outperforms TSR at high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) whereas TSR outperforms PSR at low SNR, in multi-hop AF-WSNs with energy harvesting. 相似文献
