Most studies that consider the problem of estimating the location of a point source in wireless sensor networks assume that the source location is estimated by a set of spatially distributed sensors, whose locations are fixed. Motivated by…

This paper investigates the problem of linear spatial collaboration for distributed estimation in wireless sensor networks. In this context, the sensors share their local noisy (and potentially spatially correlated) observations with each…

We consider distributed estimation of a Gaussian vector with a linear observation model in an inhomogeneous wireless sensor network, where a fusion center (FC) reconstructs the unknown vector, using a linear estimator. Sensors employ…
