Efficient and privacy-preserving data aggregation in a wireless sensor network (WSN) poses a tremendous challenge: how to cope with sensors compromise-once a sensor is compromised, its crypto material is compromised and so is privacy of aggregate data. To address this challenge, we propose two operationally simple and privacy-preserving protocols: PASKOS (Privacy-preserving based on Anonymously Shared...
We consider a wireless sensor network in which a routing tree has been established to transmit the information from a set of source nodes to a data sink. The existing algorithms to schedule the transmission slots in a way that allows the data to be compressed as it moves towards the data sink are centralized or rely on interference models that fail occasionally. We propose a distributed TDMA scheduling...
A wireless sensor network (WSN) is composed of a large number of sensor nodes which are resource constraints, e.g., limited power. This drives research on how to design routing protocols to gather data efficiently so that the life of the network can be prolonged. A usual concept to collect data by a sink node is to transfer data from sensor nodes to the sink node by multi-hop. However, it gives rise...
Application-specific data aggregation can play a significant role in energy-efficient operation of wireless sensor networks. Existing aggregation techniques rely heavily on the routing protocol to build shortest paths to route node measurements to the base station and are limited in the types of supported queries. We propose an aggregation scheme that utilizes the inherent information gradients present...
Aiming at the periodical data gathering application of wireless sensor network, the transmission delay and the network traffic loads are analyzed for the route-based data aggregation algorithm. It is then investigated how to minimize the network traffic within the data delay bound. An optimization problem is deduced based on the traffic aggregation model. Inspired by the hill-climbing algorithm, a...
Energy consumption of communication is a key factor of the lifetimes of wireless sensor networks. This paper presents an energy-efficient routing protocol for wireless sensor network. In the protocol, each sensor node detects the distance between the base station and itself. Then, it calculates a tier ID in according to the distance. A lower tier ID indicates a shorter distance between the base station...
