Advances in networking, sensors, medical devices and smart phones have made it feasible to monitor and provide medical and other assistance to people either in their homes or outs...
Abstract-- We consider distributed parameter estimation using quantized observations in wireless sensor networks where due to bandwidth constraint, each sensor quantizes its local ...
— We propose an Efficient Reliable Data Collection (eRDC) algorithm. The eRDC is designed for energy-constraint wireless sensor networks (WSN) to balance reliability and energy c...
