Coverage is one of the fundamental issues in wireless multimedia sensor networks (WMSNs). It reflects the ability of WMSNs to detect the fields. Motivated by the existing-enhancing algorithm of traditional 2D WMSNs, a new 3D WMSNs sensing…
Assuming a random uniform distribution of n sensor nodes over a virtual grid, this paper addresses the problem of finding the maximum number of connected set covers each ensuring 100% coverage of the query region. The connected sets remain…
The field of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is experiencing a resurgence of interest and a continuous evolution in the scientific and industrial community. The use of this particular type of ad hoc network is becoming increasingly…
We correct a mistake in a lemma in the paper cited in the title and show that it did not affect any of the other results of the paper. To this end we prove results on linearly disjoint field extensions that do not seem to be commonly known.…
In wireless sensor networks, where energy is scarce, it is inefficient to have all nodes active because they consume a non-negligible amount of battery. In this paper we consider the problem of jointly selecting sensors, relays and links in…
We study a mobile wireless sensor network (MWSN) consisting of multiple mobile sensors or robots. Three key factors in MWSNs, sensing quality, energy consumption, and connectivity, have attracted plenty of attention, but the interaction of…

Monitoring Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are composed of sensor nodes that report temperature, relative humidity, and other environmental parameters. The time between two successive measurements is a critical parameter to set during the…
An improved inference method for densely connected systems is presented. The approach is based on passing condensed messages between variables, representing macroscopic averages of microscopic messages. We extend previous work that showed…
The coverage problem in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) can be generally defined as a measure of how effectively a network field is monitored by its sensor nodes. This problem has attracted a lot of interest over the years and as a result,…
This paper investigates the outage probability and the throughput of relay networks with wireless information and energy transfer where the relays harvest energy from the transmitted radio-frequency signal of the source. Considering…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author, due to a significant error in section 4.3.1.
In this paper, we study data-aided sensing (DAS) for distributed detection in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) when sensors' measurements are correlated. In particular, we derive a node selection criterion based on the J-divergence in DAS…
Existing anomaly and intrusion detection schemes of wireless sensor networks have mainly focused on the detection of intrusions. Once the intrusion is detected, an alerts or claims will be generated. However, any unidentified malicious…
Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs), known as Wi-Fi, have become an essential service in university environments that helps staff, students and guests to access connectivity to the Internet from their mobile devices. Apart from the…
Location information is often used as a proxy to infer the performance of a wireless communication link. Using a very simple model, this letter unveils a basic statistical relation between the location estimation uncertainty and wireless…
We study a distributed node-specific parameter estimation problem where each node in a wireless sensor network is interested in the simultaneous estimation of different vectors of parameters that can be of local interest, of common interest…
Here we give a reformulation of a key lemma in the paper [2], "Spaces of Topological Complexity One", which is necessary due to an oversight.
Lately, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have become an emerging technology and can be utilized in some crucial circumstances like battlegrounds, commercial applications, habitat observing, buildings, smart homes, traffic surveillance and…
This paper introduces the Beta distribution as a novel technique to weight direct and indirect trust and assessing the risk in wireless sensor networks. This paper also reviews the trust factors, which play a major role in building trust in…
