Introduction

Chen, Cailian; Zhu, Shanying; Guan, Xinping; Shen, Xuemin (Sherman)

Pages: 1 –4

[Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) [1] are massively distributed systems for sensing and processing of spatially dense data. They are composed of a large number of nodes deployed in harsh environments to execute challenging tasks including security/surveillance, environmental monitoring, health...

Distributed Consensus Estimation of Wireless Sensor Networks

Chen, Cailian; Zhu, Shanying; Guan, Xinping; Shen, Xuemin (Sherman)

Pages: 5 –11

[Recently, consensus based distributed estimation has attracted considerable attention from various fields to estimate deterministic parameters and track time-varying ones. In this chapter, the state-of-the-art of distributed consensus estimation is discussed.]

Consensus-Based Distributed Parameter Estimation with Asymmetric Communications

Chen, Cailian; Zhu, Shanying; Guan, Xinping; Shen, Xuemin (Sherman)

Pages: 13 –40

[This chapter focuses on exploiting the sensor fusion capability for situation monitoring applications over a kind of relay assisted sensor networks consisting of multiple kinds of SNs and RNs. SNs implement assimilation of new measurement and cooperation with other nodes. While for RNs, the main...

Consensus-Based Optimal Target Tracking in Relay Assisted Wireless Sensor Networks

Chen, Cailian; Zhu, Shanying; Guan, Xinping; Shen, Xuemin (Sherman)

Pages: 41 –64

[This chapter is concerned with the problem of filter design for target tracking over WSNs. Similar to Chap. 3, we also consider the relay assisted WSNs with SNs and RNs respectively. In Chap. 3, we deal with the parameter estimation in such networks. However, questions of how to deal with the...

Node Deployment for Distributed Consensus Estimation

Chen, Cailian; Zhu, Shanying; Guan, Xinping; Shen, Xuemin (Sherman)

Pages: 65 –79

[This chapter deals with node deployment problem for distributed estimation of unknown signals in relay assisted WSNs. It is discovered that the network topology is closely related to the properties of the estimation algorithm. To satisfy the performance of the estimation algorithm, two node...

Conclusions and Future Work

Chen, Cailian; Zhu, Shanying; Guan, Xinping; Shen, Xuemin (Sherman)

Pages: 81 –82

[In this chapter, we summarize the main results presented in this monograph and highlight future research directions.]
