This paper presents a distributed wireless sensor network for multiple mobile agents localization. Localization of mobile agents, such as mobile robots, humans, and moving objects, in an indoor space is essential for robot-robot interaction (RRI) and human-robot interaction (HRI). The standard localization system, which is based on sensors installed in the robot body, is not suitable for multiple agents. Therefore, the concept of sensor network, which uses wireless sensors distributed in a specified space, is used in this study. By analyzing related studies, two solutions are proposed for the localization of mobile agents including humans: a new hardware system and a new software algorithm. The first solution focuses on the architectural design of the wireless sensor network for multiple agent localization. A passive RFID system is used, and then the architecture of the sensor network is adapted to suit the target system. The second solution centers on a localization algorithm based on the sensor network. The proposed localization algorithm improves the accuracy in the multiple agent localization system. The algorithm uses the displacement conditions of the mobile agents and the recognition changes between the RFID tags and RFID reader. Through experiments using a real platform, the usefulness of the proposed system is verified.
提出了一种用于多移动代理定位的分布式无线传感器网络。在室内空间中,移动代理(如移动机器人、人类和移动物体)的定位对于机器人-机器人交互(RRI)和人机交互(HRI)至关重要。标准的定位系统是基于安装在机器人体内的传感器,不适合多智能体。因此,本研究采用了传感器网络的概念,即无线传感器分布在一定的空间内。在分析相关研究的基础上,提出了包括人类在内的移动智能体定位的两种解决方案:一种新的硬件系统和一种新的软件算法。第一个解决方案侧重于多智能体定位无线传感器网络的体系结构设计。首先采用无源RFID系统,然后根据目标系统的需要调整传感器网络的结构。第二种解决方案是基于传感器网络的定位算法。提出的定位算法提高了多智能体定位系统的精度。该算法利用移动代理的位移条件和RFID标签与RFID阅读器之间的识别变化。通过实际平台的实验,验证了该系统的有效性。

Collaborative Spectrum Sensing for Cognitive Radio: Diversity Combining Approach 认知无线电协同频谱感知:分集组合方法

In this paper it is shown that cyclostationary spectrum sensing for Cognitive Radio networks, applying multiple cyclic frequencies for single user detection can be interpreted (with some assumptions) in terms of optimal incoherent diversity addition for “virtual diversity branches” or SIMO radar. This approach allows proposing, by analogy to diversity combining, suboptimal algorithms which can provide near optimal characteristics for the Neyman-Pearson Test (NPT) for single user detection. The analysis is based on the Generalized Gaussian (Klovsky-Middleton) Channel Model, which allows obtaining the NPT noise immunity characteristics: probability of misdetection error (PM) and probability of false alarm (Pfa) or Receiver Operational Characteristics (ROC) in the most general way. Some quasi-optimum algorithms such as energetic receiver and selection addition algorithm are analyzed and their comparison with the noise immunity properties (ROC) of the optimum approach is provided as well. Finally, the diversity combining approach is applied for the collaborative spectrum sensing and censoring. It is shown how the diversity addition principles are applied for distributed detection algorithms, called hereafter as SIMO radar or distributed SIMO radar, implementing Majority Addition (MA) approach and Weighted Majority Addition (WMA) principle.
本文表明,认知无线电网络的循环平稳频谱感知,应用多个循环频率进行单用户检测,可以用“虚拟分集分支”或SIMO雷达的最佳非相干分集加法来解释(在某些假设下)。这种方法可以提出类似于多样性组合的次优算法,这些算法可以为单用户检测的Neyman-Pearson测试(NPT)提供接近最优的特性。该分析基于广义高斯(Klovsky-Middleton)信道模型,该模型允许以最一般的方式获得NPT噪声抗扰特性:误检误差概率(PM)和虚警概率(Pfa)或接收机操作特性(ROC)。分析了几种准最优算法,如能量接收算法和选择加法算法,并与最优算法的抗噪性能(ROC)进行了比较。最后,将分集组合方法应用于协同频谱感知与滤波。展示了分集加法原理如何应用于分布式检测算法,以下称为SIMO雷达或分布式SIMO雷达,实现多数加法(MA)方法和加权多数加法(WMA)原理。

Concealed Integrity Monitoring for Wireless Sensor Networks 无线传感器网络的隐式完整性监测
Pub Date : 2011-01-30 DOI: 10.4236/wsn.2011.31002

Nowadays, sensor networks are widely installed around the world. Typical sensors provide data for healthcare, energy management, environmental monitoring, etc. In the future sensors will become a part of critical infrastructures. In such a scenario the network operator has to monitor the integrity of the network devices, otherwise the trustworthiness of the whole system is questionable. The problem is that every integrity protocol needs a secure channel between the devices. Therefore, we will introduce a covert channel for hidden transportation of integrity monitoring messages. The covert channel enables us to hide integrity check messages embedded into regular traffic without giving potential attackers a hint on the used integrity protocol.
如今,传感器网络在世界各地广泛安装。典型的传感器为医疗保健、能源管理、环境监测等提供数据。在未来,传感器将成为关键基础设施的一部分。在这种情况下,网络运营商必须监控网络设备的完整性,否则整个系统的可靠性就会受到质疑。问题是每个完整性协议都需要设备之间的安全通道。因此,我们将引入一个隐蔽通道,用于隐藏传输完整性监视消息。隐蔽通道使我们能够隐藏嵌入到常规流量中的完整性检查消息,而不会向潜在的攻击者提示所使用的完整性协议。

Recent advances in wireless communications are diffusing into many new applications. The tiny sensor node, which consists of sensing, data processing and communicating components, led to the idea of sensor networks. A sensor network composed of a large number of sensor nodes that are densely deployed either inside the phenomenon or very close to it. The applications envisioned for sensor networks vary from monitoring inhospitable habitats and disaster areas to operating indoors for intrusion detection and equipment monitoring. In most cases the network designer would have little control over the exact deployment of the network. Nowadays Vehicular Networks are drawing lots of attention due to the wide variety of applications that they can provide. These applications include traffic monitoring, positioning, security etc. A lot of research work is being conducted to define the standard for vehicular communication. These include frequency allocation, standards for physical and link layers, routing algorithms, security issues and new applications. In this paper we discuss the disadvantages of the traffic monitoring by traditional methods and by using GPS equipped sensors. Then we propose a new routing protocol for a fixed topology containing both stationary and mobile nodes. We also try to optimize the energy of the sensor nodes. We simulate our routing algorithm in MATLAB and evaluate it for different possible cases.
无线通信的最新进展正在向许多新的应用领域扩散。微型传感器节点由传感、数据处理和通信组件组成,由此产生了传感器网络的概念。由大量传感器节点组成的传感器网络,这些节点密集地部署在现象内部或离现象很近的地方。设想的传感器网络应用范围从监测不适宜居住的栖息地和灾区到在室内操作进行入侵检测和设备监测。在大多数情况下,网络设计者几乎无法控制网络的确切部署。目前,车载网络因其广泛的应用而备受关注。这些应用包括交通监控、定位、安全等。人们正在进行大量的研究工作,以确定车载通信的标准。这些问题包括频率分配、物理层和链路层标准、路由算法、安全问题和新应用。本文讨论了传统的交通监控方法和使用GPS传感器进行交通监控的缺点。然后,我们提出了一种新的包含固定和移动节点的固定拓扑路由协议。我们还尝试优化传感器节点的能量。我们在MATLAB中模拟了我们的路由算法,并对不同情况下的路由算法进行了评估。

Lifetime Optimization via Network Sectoring in Cooperative Wireless Sensor Networks 基于网络分块的协同无线传感器网络寿命优化

Employing cooperative communication in multihop wireless sensor networks provides the network with significant energy efficiency. However, the lifetime of such a network is directly dependant upon the lifetime of each of its individual sections (or clusters). Ignoring the fact that those sections close to sink have to forward more data (their own data plus the data received from the previous sections) and hence die sooner with considering equal section sizes, leads to a sub-optimal lifetime. In this paper, we optimize the section sizes of a multihop cooperative WSN so that it maximizes the network lifetime. Simulation results demonstrate a significant lifetime enhancement for the proposed optimal sectoring.
在多跳无线传感器网络中采用协同通信,可以显著提高网络的能效。然而,这种网络的生命周期直接依赖于其每个单独部分(或集群)的生命周期。忽略那些靠近sink的部分必须转发更多数据(它们自己的数据加上从前面部分接收到的数据)的事实,因此在考虑相等的部分大小时,会更快地死亡,导致次优生命周期。在本文中,我们优化了多跳协作WSN的分段大小,使其网络生存时间最大化。仿真结果表明,所提出的最优分割线具有显著的寿命增强。

Message Cab (MCab): Partition Restoration in MANETs Using Flexible Helping Hosts Message Cab (MCab):在manet中使用灵活的帮助主机进行分区恢复
Pub Date : 2010-12-31 DOI: 10.4236/WSN.2010.212107
Ting Wang, C. Low
Helping hosts are intensively used in various schemes to restore partitioned Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs).Most of the existing schemes offers only deterministic deployment and fixed routes for the helping hosts, and are thus not able to deal with fluctuating network traffic, which is a practical condition in many MANET applications. In this paper, we argue that flexible helping hosts (referred to as Message Cabs (MCabs)), with deployment and routes that response to the changes in the traffic demand of the network, may overcome this drawback and reduce the message delay in the networks. To demonstrate the effectiveness of this observation, we propose a new helping host scheme namely the Message Cab (MCab) scheme for partition restoration in MANETs, and validate the performance through simulations.
在各种恢复分区移动自组网(manet)的方案中,大量使用了帮助主机的方法。现有的大多数方案只提供确定性部署和固定路由给辅助主机,因此不能处理波动的网络流量,这是许多MANET应用中的实际情况。在本文中,我们认为灵活的辅助主机(称为消息cab (mcab)),通过部署和路由响应网络流量需求的变化,可以克服这一缺点并减少网络中的消息延迟。为了证明这一观察结果的有效性,我们提出了一种新的辅助主机方案,即消息Cab (Message Cab)方案,用于MANETs分区恢复,并通过仿真验证了该方案的性能。

L-SYNC is a synchronization protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks which is based on larger degree clustering providing efficiency in homogeneous topologies. In L-SYNC, the effectiveness of the routing algorithm for the synchronization precision of two remote nodes was considered. Clustering in L-SYNC is according to larger degree techniques. These techniques reduce cluster overlapping, resulting in the routing algorithm requiring fewer hops to move from one cluster to another remote cluster. Even though L-SYNC offers higher precision compared to other algorithms, it does not support heterogeneous topologies and its synchronization algorithm can be influenced by unreliable data. In this paper, we present the L-SYNCng (L-SYNC next generation) protocol, working in heterogeneous topologies. Our proposed protocol is scalable in unreliable and noisy environments. Simulation results illustrate that L-SYNCng has better precision in synchronization and scalability.
L-SYNC是一种基于更大程度聚类的无线传感器网络同步协议,可在同构拓扑下提供效率。在L-SYNC中,考虑了路由算法对两个远程节点同步精度的影响。L-SYNC中的聚类是基于大度技术的。这些技术减少了集群重叠,从而使路由算法从一个集群移动到另一个远程集群所需的跳数更少。尽管与其他算法相比,L-SYNC提供了更高的精度,但它不支持异构拓扑,并且其同步算法可能受到不可靠数据的影响。在本文中,我们提出了在异构拓扑下工作的L-SYNCng(下一代L-SYNC)协议。我们提出的协议在不可靠和嘈杂的环境中具有可扩展性。仿真结果表明,L-SYNCng具有较好的同步精度和可扩展性。

Predicting Ground Effects of Omnidirectional Antennas in Wireless Sensor Networks 无线传感器网络中全向天线的地面效应预测
Pub Date : 2010-12-31 DOI: 10.4236/wsn.2010.212106

Omnidirectional antennas are often used for radio frequency (RF) communication in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Outside noise, electromagnetic interference (EMI), overloaded network traffic, large obstacles (vegetation and buildings), terrain and atmospheric composition, along with climate patterns can degrade signal quality in the form of data packet loss or reduced RF communication range. This paper explores the RF range reduction properties of a particular WSN designed to operate in agricultural crop fields to collect aggregate data composed of subsurface soil moisture and soil temperature. Our study, using simulation, anechoic and field measurements shows that the effect of antenna placement close to the ground (within 10 cm) signi?cantly changes the omnidirectional transmission pattern. We then develop and propose a prediction method that is more precise than current practices of using the Friis and Fresnel equations. Our prediction method takes into account environmental properties for RF communication range based on the height of nodes and gateways.
在无线传感器网络(wsn)中,全向天线常用于射频通信。外部噪声、电磁干扰(EMI)、超负荷的网络流量、大型障碍物(植被和建筑物)、地形和大气成分以及气候模式都会以数据包丢失或射频通信范围缩小的形式降低信号质量。本文研究了一种用于农作物田间采集地下土壤湿度和土壤温度综合数据的无线传感器网络的射频距离缩减特性。我们的研究,使用模拟,消声和现场测量表明,天线放置在靠近地面(在10厘米以内)的信号的影响?Cantly改变了全向传输模式。然后,我们开发并提出了一种预测方法,比目前使用弗里斯和菲涅耳方程的做法更精确。我们的预测方法考虑了基于节点和网关高度的射频通信范围的环境特性。

Approaches based on integer linear programming have been recently proposed for topology optimization in wireless sensor networks. They are, however, based on over-theoretical, unrealistic models. Our aim is to show that it is possible to accommodate realistic models for energy consumption and communication protocols into integer linear programming. We analyze the maximum lifetime broadcasting topology problem and we present realistic models that are also shown to provide efficient and practical solving tools. We present a strategy to substantially speed up the convergence of the solving process of our algorithm. This strategy introduces a practical drawback, however, in the characteristics of the optimal solutions retrieved. A method to overcome this drawback is discussed. Computational experiments are reported.
近年来,人们提出了基于整数线性规划的无线传感器网络拓扑优化方法。然而,它们是建立在过于理论化、不切实际的模型之上的。我们的目标是表明,将能源消耗和通信协议的现实模型纳入整数线性规划是可能的。我们分析了最大生存期广播拓扑问题,并给出了实际的模型,这些模型也被证明提供了有效和实用的解决工具。我们提出了一种策略,以大大加快我们的算法的收敛过程。然而,这种策略引入了一个实际的缺点,即检索到的最优解的特性。讨论了克服这一缺点的方法。并报道了计算实验。

We analyze the maximum lifetime broadcasting topology problem and we present realistic models that are also shown to provide efficient and practical solving tools. We present a strategy to substantially speed up the convergence of the solving process of our algorithm. This strategy introduces a practical drawback, however, in the characteristics of the optimal solutions retrieved. A method to overcome this drawback is discussed. Computational experiments are reported.","PeriodicalId":251051,"journal":{"name":"Wirel. Sens.

We present a simulation framework for wireless sensor networks developed to allow the design exploration and the complete microprocessor-instruction-level debug of network formation, data congestion, nodes interaction, all in one simulation environment. A specifically innovative feature is the co-emulation of selected nodes at clock-cycle-accurate hardware processing level, allowing code debug and exact execution latency evaluation (considering both protocol stack and application), together with other nodes at abstract protocol level, meeting a designer’s needs of simulation speed, scalability and reliability. The simulator is centered on the Zigbee protocol and can be retargeted for different node micro-architectures.
我们提出了一个无线传感器网络的仿真框架,该框架允许在一个仿真环境中进行网络形成、数据拥塞、节点交互的设计探索和完整的微处理器指令级调试。一个特别创新的功能是在时钟周期精确的硬件处理级别上选择节点的共同仿真,允许代码调试和精确的执行延迟评估(考虑协议堆栈和应用程序),与抽象协议级别的其他节点一起,满足设计者对仿真速度,可扩展性和可靠性的需求。该模拟器以Zigbee协议为中心,可以针对不同的节点微架构进行重新定位。
