Adaptive Data Update Management in Sensor Networks

Abstract

Transmitting messages is by far the most energy-intensive thing that most sensors do. We consider the problem of a sensor which regularly senses some parameter in its operating environment. Based on the value it knows to have been estimated at the base station (or other central information collation station) for that parameter, the actual sensed value, its remaining energy levels, and other quantities such as the time-to-go in the mission (if limited) or the anticipated energy inflow (if energy harvesting is used), it decides whether that sensed value is worth transmitting. We present heuristics to make this decision and evaluate their performance.
