Information Content-Based Sensor Selection and Transmission Power Adjustment For Collaborative Target Tracking

The document discusses an energy-efficient collaborative target tracking approach for wireless sensor networks. It proposes using a mutual information-based sensor selection algorithm and transmission power adjustment method where more informative nodes use higher transmission powers. The goal is to reduce energy consumption while maintaining target position estimation accuracy.

Information Content-Based Sensor Selection and Transmission Power Adjustment for Collaborative Target Tracking

Abstract:

For target tracking applications, wireless sensor nodes provide accurate information since they can be deployed and operated near the phenomenon. These sensing devices have the opportunity of collaboration among themselves to improve the target localization and tracking accuracies. An energy-efficient collaborative target tracking paradigm is developed for wireless sensor networks ( !"s#. $n addition, a novel approach to energy savings in !"s is devised in the information-controlled transmission power ($%T&# ad'ustment, where nodes with more information use higher transmission powers than those that are less informative to share their target state information with the neighboring nodes.

Algorithm ( Techni ue used:

$%T& )ethod.

Algorithm !escri"tion:

The $%T& scheme is embodied in the power ad'ustment logic module in which a node consults the mutual information list inde* of the sensor node and the preset power ad'ustment pattern, and subse+uently, decides on the transmission power for communicating its information state and information matri* denominations to the network.

#$isting S%stem: Target tracking sensor networks monitor and track the movement of a target ob'ect. ,nergy management in these sensor networks is crucial to prolong the network lifetime. &rotocol ,!T (energy saving schedule for target tracking sensor networks# that provides a dynamic sleep schedule for the radios such that ma*imum energy is saved without affecting the sensors- activities. hen there is no target, the communication modules of sensor nodes are put into sleep using a static schedule, e*cept the border nodes. $nterior nodes do not perform the sensing activity in the surveillance state. $f a target arrives, the sleep schedule for the radios is changed dynamically in order to send the arrival message to neighboring sensors. .y receiving the arrival message, the sleeping neighbor nodes start sensing. The ob'ectives of our protocol are to (/# balance the lifetime of all the sensor nodes in the network to increase the network lifetime (0# reduce the energy consumption by activating the sensors only when the target arrives in that region.
