Abstract

In recent years use of a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) has become a leading area of research in various applications. Because of WSN limitation of its own features that low ability of calculation, small volume of storage, resource constrain, bad communicational environment of wireless, which lead to WSN be besieged by imminent security problems, the abnormal detection in WSN is vary important at this time. We focus on the quality of data, and aim at the characteristics of wireless sensor network node data with time and spatial similarity, and the current research on anomaly analysis. We use the classification to detect outliers. This paper presents a method of detecting the proximity of distance based on distance, which is the main reason for the study of the anomalous value of the network. The KNN (K-Nearest Neighbor) algorithm is used to analyze and detect the data to achieve the purpose of data anomaly detection in WSN. The algorithm of outlier detection is based on the design and achieve of QualNet simulation platform. It is effective and accurate to evaluate and test. The simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed KNN algorithm.
