Entropy-based sensor selection heuristic for target localization
We propose an entropy-based sensor selection heuristic for localization. Given 1) a prior probability distribution of the target location, and 2) the locations and the sensing mod...

How to distribute sensors in a random field?
In this paper, we study the optimal way of distributing sensors in a random field to minimize the estimation distortion. We show that this problem is equivalent to certain proble...

The impact of spatial correlation on routing with compression in wireless sensor networks
The efficacy of data aggregation in sensor networks is a function of the degree of spatial correlation in the sensed phenomenon. While several data aggregation (i.e., routing with...
