This paper proposes an efficient algorithm for robust sensor placement with the purpose of recovering a source signal from noisy measurements. To model uncertainty on spatially-variant sensors gain and spatially correlated noise, we assume that both are realizations Gaussian processes. Since to noise ratio (SNR) is also uncertain in this context, achieve extraction, propose new criterion based ...

Distributed, real-time sensor networks are essential for effective surveillance in the digitized battlefield and for environmental monitoring. In this paper, we present the first systematic theory that leads to novel sensor deployment strategies for effective surveillance and target location. We represent the sensor field as a grid (twoor threedimensional) of points (coordinates), and use the t...

Thermal sensor characteristics and placement directly impacts the effectiveness and accuracy of full-chip thermal characterization necessary for dynamic thermal management (DTM) and reliable on-chip operation of multi/many-core chips. Temperature sensor characteristics widely vary in their area, power, and accuracy; the number of deployable sensors is constrained by the on-chip area/power const...
