An adaptive-weighted two-dimensional data aggregation algorithm for clustered wireless sensor networks

  • Published:
Journal of Electronics (China)

Abstract

In this paper, an Adaptive-Weighted Time-Dimensional and Space-Dimensional (AWTDSD) data aggregation algorithm for a clustered sensor network is proposed for prolonging the lifetime of the network as well as improving the accuracy of the data gathered in the network. AWTDSD contains three phases: (1) the time-dimensional aggregation phase for eliminating the data redundancy; (2) the adaptive-weighted aggregation phase for further aggregating the data as well as improving the accuracy of the aggregated data; and (3) the space-dimensional aggregation phase for reducing the size and the amount of the data transmission to the base station. AWTDSD utilizes the correlations between the sensed data for reducing the data transmission and increasing the data accuracy as well. Experimental result shows that AWTDSD can not only save almost a half of the total energy consumption but also greatly increase the accuracy of the data monitored by the sensors in the clustered network.
