On the Design of Soft-Decision Fusion Rule for Coding Approach in Wireless Sensor Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this work, two soft-decision fusion rules, which are respectively named the maximum a priori (MAP) and the suboptimal minimum Euclidean distance (MED) fusion rules, are designed based on a given employed sensor code and associated local classification. Their performance comparison with the distributed classification fusion using soft-decision decoding (DCSD) proposed in an earlier work is also performed. Simulations show that when the number of faulty sensors is small, the MAP fusion rule remains the best at either low sensor observation signal-to-noise ratios (OSNRs) or low communication channel signal-to-noise ratios (CSNRs), and yet, the DCSD fusion rule gives the best performance at middle to high OSNRs and high CSNRs. However, when the number of faulty sensor nodes grows large, the least complex MED fusion rule outperforms the MAP fusion rule at high OSNRs and high CSNRs.

متن کاملHybrid Key pre-distribution scheme for wireless sensor network based on combinatorial design
Key distribution is an important problem in wireless sensor networks where sensor nodesare randomly scattered in adversarial environments.Due to the random deployment of sensors, a list of keys must be pre-distributed to each sensor node before deployment. To establish a secure communication, two nodes must share common key from their key-rings. Otherwise, they can find a key- path in which ens...
متن کاملA Fuzzy Based Approach for Rate Control in Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks
Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks (WMSNs) undergo congestion when a link (or a node) becomes overpopulated in terms of incoming packets. In WMSNs this happens especially in upstream nodes where all incoming packets meet and directed to the sink node. Congestion in networks, if not handled properly, might lead to congestion collapse which deteriorates the quality of service (QoS). Therefore, i...

متن کاملDesign and evaluation of two distributed methods for sensors placement in Wireless Sensor Networks
Adequate coverage is one of the main problems for distributed wireless sensor networks and The effectiveness of that highly depends on the sensor deployment scheme. Given a finite number of sensors, optimizing the sensor deployment will provide sufficient sensor coverage and save power of sensors for movement to target location to adequate coverage. In this paper, we apply fuzzy logic system to...
