Efficient target tracking applications use active sensor nodes collaboratively to track multiple moving targets by balancing the trade-off between the quality of tracking and network's lifetime. In this paper, we propose a low-energy dynamic sensor selection (LEDS) scheme to track multiple targets by estimating energy consumption of sensors and information utility projection of the targets on sensors to calculate the eagerness in tracking. Eagerness represents the eligibility of a sensor node to be selected for tracking, considering relative profiles of other sensors and location of all the targets in its vicinity. LEDS enables an even distribution of energy consumption among the nodes to prolong their remaining energies. Our results show that the proposed scheme can significantly improve the network lifetime over the existing methods while maintaining the high tracking accuracy in congested areas where multiple concurrent targets overlap. |
