Joint Optimization of Local and Fusion Rules in a Decentralized Sensor Network
Decentralized sensor networks are collections of individual local sensors that observe a common phenomenon, quantize their observations, and send this quantized information to a ce...

Entropy-based sensor selection heuristic for target localization
We propose an entropy-based sensor selection heuristic for localization. Given 1) a prior probability distribution of the target location, and 2) the locations and the sensing mod...

Mesh-Based Sensor Relocation for Coverage Maintenance in Mobile Sensor Networks
Abstract. Sensor relocation protocols can be employed as fault tolerance approach to offset the coverage loss caused by node failures. We introduce a novel localized structure, in...

A new distributed topology control algorithm for wireless environments with non-uniform path loss and multipath propagation
Each node in a wireless multi-hop network can adjust the power level at which it transmits and thus change the topology of the network to save energy by choosing the neighbors wit...
