Taking into account all of these contributing factors and implementing a DES system which minimizes the MSE and satisfies all constraints is a challenging task. In order to probe into different aspects of this challenging task we identify and formulate the following three problems and address them accordingly:

Book Contributions to Distributed Detection and Estimation Over Sensor Networks

Download or read book Contributions to Distributed Detection and Estimation Over Sensor Networks written by Gene Whipps and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wireless sensor networks have matured over the last several years from popular research and development platforms to commercially-available sensors and systems. In many applications, wireless sensor networks have size, weight, power, and cost limitations. These constraints directly affect the ability of sensor nodes to adequately process and reliably communicate information within the sensor network. This dissertation examines aspects of distributed detection and estimation over a sensor network while considering limitations inherent in wireless networks. First, we consider the problem of distributed detection from a large network of sensors and introduce a realistic network model. Sensor nodes make individual decisions from their local observation and then communicate these decisions through a shared and imperfect communications channel to a central decision node. The key difference from previous research is the network model allows the decision rule to leverage errors in the channel to improve detection performance. We derive analytical expressions that characterize the detection performance of the system with respect to both sensor density and communications delay. We show that the detection performance improves with network density when sensor nodes are appropriately censored and desensitized, despite increasing message collisions. In addition, we show that detection performance using the protocol model, with imperfect communications, rapidly converges to the perfect communications case as the number of communication slots increase.

Book Wireless Sensor Networks

Download or read book Wireless Sensor Networks written by Cailian Chen and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-12-10 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This SpringerBrief evaluates the cooperative effort of sensor nodes to accomplish high-level tasks with sensing, data processing and communication. The metrics of network-wide convergence, unbiasedness, consistency and optimality are discussed through network topology, distributed estimation algorithms and consensus strategy. Systematic analysis reveals that proper deployment of sensor nodes and a small number of low-cost relays (without sensing function) can speed up the information fusion and thus improve the estimation capability of wireless sensor networks (WSNs). This brief also investigates the spatial distribution of sensor nodes and basic scalable estimation algorithms, the consensus-based estimation capability for a class of relay assisted sensor networks with asymmetric communication topology, and the problem of filter design for mobile target tracking over WSNs. From the system perspective, the network topology is closely related to the capability and efficiency of network-wide scalable distributed estimation. Wireless Sensor Networks: Distributed Consensus Estimation is a valuable resource for researchers and professionals working in wireless communications, networks and distributed computing. Advanced-level students studying computer science and electrical engineering will also find the content helpful.

Then, the existing techniques for resource efficiency information transmission are introduced and studied. Afterward, the authors introduce sensing and control-oriented transmission for industrial network systems, which take advantage of spatial diversity gain to overcome the interference and fading, which in turn improves the transmission reliability without expending extra spectrum resources and enlarging the transmission delay. Subsequently, edge assisted efficient transmission schemes are introduced, which integrate the capacities of communication, computing, and control to relieve the contradiction of resource limitation and massive data. Finally, the authors discuss open research issues and future works about information transmission in industrial network systems.

Book Distributed Fusion Algorithms and Control Strategies for Sensor Networks

Download or read book Distributed Fusion Algorithms and Control Strategies for Sensor Networks written by Adrees Ahmad and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fundamental issue concerning the development of sensor network systems and algorithms is how to transmit data collected by each sensor node to a central point. This operation may place a significant strain on the energy resources of the system. However, in many applications, the ultimate goal is not merely the collection of data, but rather an estimate of certain phe¬nomenon and parameters of interest. These characteristics of sensor networks motivate the design and development of a new class of distributed estimation, fusion, optimization and control schemes which may prove to be of immense importance in exploiting the limited energy resources, data processing and communication capabilities of these systems. -- The broad aim of this research work is to analyze and develop cooperative and decentralized signal processing and control strategies for sensor networks. This will be addressed by studying the following: distributed estimation and distributed optimization in the context of sensor networks. Both problems are interrelated in the sense that the distributed optimization proposes efficient methods for the data gathering task within the network while the distributed fusion deals with the estimation of random signals using data collected across distributed nodes. -- This thesis presents novel distributed estimation and optimization algorithms and makes several contributions. Firstly, the distributed optimization problem associated with the data gathering task for a hierarchical network is defined and an objective function for the communication cost is formulated. The objective function is then minimised by employing the proposed algorithm based on the gradient descent strategy. -- Secondly, a decentralized estimation scheme is developed for tracking uncertain stochastic signals from the observations collected by the sensor nodes.
