Information, Energy and Density for Ad Hoc Sensor Networks over Correlated Random Fields: Large Deviations Analysis

Information Theory 2016-11-15 v1 math.IT

Abstract

Using large deviations results that characterize the amount of information per node on a two-dimensional (2-D) lattice, asymptotic behavior of a sensor network deployed over a correlated random field for statistical inference is investigated. Under a 2-D hidden Gauss-Markov random field model with symmetric first order conditional autoregression, the behavior of the total information [nats] and energy efficiency [nats/J] defined as the ratio of total gathered information to the required energy is obtained as the coverage area, node density and energy vary.
