An Optimized In-Network Aggregation Scheme for Data Collection in Periodic Sensor Networks
Résumé
In-network data aggregation is considered an effective technique for conserving energy communication in wireless sensor networks. It consists in eliminating the inherent redundancy in raw data collected from the sensor nodes. Prior works on data aggregation protocols have focused on the measurement data redundancy. In this paper, our goal in addition of reducing measures redundancy is to identify near duplicate nodes that generate similar data sets. We consider a tree based bi-level periodic data aggregation approach implemented on the source node and on the aggregator levels. We investigate the problem of finding all pairs of nodes generating similar data sets such that similarity between each pair of sets is above a threshold t. We propose a new frequency filtering approach and several optimizations using sets similarity functions to solve this problem. To evaluate the performance of the proposed filtering method, experiments on real sensor data have been conducted. The obtained results show that our approach offers significant data reduction by eliminating in network redundancy and out-performs existing filtering techniques.
