This letter proposes a novel mechanism for detecting and tracking large-scale phenomena such as spreading of wild fire and diffusion of bio-chemical material. The mechanism takes into account a two-tier grid structure in order to achieve flexibility and reliability. For flexibility, the mechanism initially constructs a proactive coarse-grained grid structure on the whole sensor field. Then, once a...
Recently, detection schemes of specific phenomena, called continuous objects, such as wild fire and bio-chemical material have been actively studied. A continuous object might cover a wide area and it could dynamically change its own shape according to physical environments, e.g. wind and geographical features. For continuous object detection, the schemes have focused on detection of the current boundary...
In wireless sensor networks, reliable event detection is one of the most important research issues. For the reliable event detection, existing studies usually assume that events are individual objects such as tanks, people, and animals. The existing studies estimate detection reliability of an individual object by the ratio of the number of successfully received data packets at a sink to the number...

Unlike previous works, the scheme takes into account a two-tier grid structure in order to achieve flexible and reliable detection and tracking.

Most existing routing protocols on the object detection and tracking in sensor networks concentrates on finding ways to detect and track one or more individual objects, such as people, animals, and vehicles, and not many protocols have been done on detecting and tracking continuous objects, such as poison gas, biochemical, and chemical liquid. These continuous objects are quite different from the...
