Efficient REBTA data reporting algorithm for object tracking in wireless sensor networks

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Object tracking is widely referred as one of the most interesting applications of wireless sensor networks (WSNs). This application is able to detect and track objects and report information about these objects to a central base station. One of the major drawbacks in the current research in WSNs is the quality of the data reporting where the major research focus is dedicated to localization of objects; however, few of these works were concentrated on the data reporting. An efficient data reporting algorithm for object tracking in WSNs is proposed in this paper. The main objective of this paper is to enhance the WSN lifetime by achieving both minimum energy and balancing such consumption in sensor nodes during reporting operation. Furthermore, in our model, the enhancement of network reliability is considered. Finally, it reduces the effects of congestion by sufficiently utilizing the under loaded nodes to improve the network throughput. This paper formulates the object tracking problem in large‐scale WSN into 0/1 integer linear programming problem, and then proposes a reliable energy balance traffic aware approach to solve the optimization problem. From the obtained simulation results, the proposed solution has proved to be able to enhance the network performance in network lifetime, throughput, end‐to‐end delay, energy balance, and complexity for both homogeneous and heterogeneous networks.
