摘要：Recently, the idea of wireless sensor networks has attracted a great deal of research attention due to wide-ranged potential applications that will be enabled by wireless sensor networks, such as battlefield surveillance, machine failure diagnosis, biological detection, home security, smart spaces, inventory tracking, etc. A wireless sensor network consists of tiny sensing devices, deployed in a region of interest. Each device has processing and wireless communication capabilities, which enable it to gather information from the environment and to generate and deliver report messages to the remote base station (remote user)[6]. The base station aggregates and analyzes the report messages received and decides whether there is an unusual or concerned event occurrence in the deployed area. Considering the limited capabilities and vulnerable nature of an individual sensor, a wireless sensor network has a large number of sensors deployed in high density (high up to 20nodes/m3 and thus redundancy can be exploited to increase data accuracy and system reliability.
