Title
Dynamic sensors collaboration to balance the accuracy-lifetime trade-off in multiple-target tracking
Abstract
Complex target tracking applications require active sensor nodes to collaboratively track multiple moving targets, which can balance the trade-off between the quality of tracking and network's lifetime. In this paper, we develop a distributed sensor-selection protocol (DSSP) to activate dynamic number of sensors based on the cost metrics. Cost metrics contains energy-aware leadership cost and eagerness-based tracking cost; which selects sensors with higher energy resources and information utilities. DSSP enables an even distribution of energy consumption among the nodes to prolong the network lifetime. Our results show that the proposed scheme can significantly improve the network lifetime while maintaining the high tracking accuracy as compared to the other schemes.
