A hybrid detector that fuses both quantized and full-precision observations is proposed for weak signal detection under additive and multiplicative Gaussian noise. We first derive a locally most powerful test (LMPT)--based hybrid detector…

A distributed detection scheme where the sensors transmit with constant modulus signals over a Gaussian multiple access channel is considered. The deflection coefficient of the proposed scheme is shown to depend on the characteristic…

We consider distributed estimation of a random source in a hierarchical power constrained wireless sensor network. Sensors within each cluster send their measurements to a cluster head (CH). CHs optimally fuse the received signals and…

We study a mobile wireless sensor network (MWSN) consisting of multiple mobile sensors or robots. Two key issues in MWSNs - energy consumption, which is dominated by sensor movement, and sensing coverage - have attracted plenty of…

We address a cognitive radio scenario, where a number of secondary users performs identification of which primary user, if any, is transmitting, in a distributed way and using limited location information. We propose two fully distributed…

In wireless acoustic sensor networks (WASNs), sensors typically have a limited energy budget as they are often battery driven. Energy efficiency is therefore essential to the design of algorithms in WASNs. One way to reduce energy costs is…

Anomaly detection has various applications including condition monitoring and fault diagnosis. The objective is to sense the environment, learn the normal system state, and then periodically classify whether the instantaneous state deviates…

In this paper, we aim to design and analyze distributed Bayesian estimation algorithms for sensor networks. The challenges we address are to (i) derive a distributed provably-correct algorithm in the functional space of probability…

This paper proposes novel spectrum sensing algorithms for cognitive radio networks. By assuming known transmitter pulse shaping filter, synchronous and asynchronous receiver scenarios have been considered. For each of these scenarios, the…

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…

A simple feedback control algorithm is presented for distributed beamforming in a wireless network. A network of wireless sensors that seek to cooperatively transmit a common message signal to a Base Station (BS) is considered. In this…

In this paper, we present a consensus-based framework for decentralized estimation of deterministic parameters in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). In particular, we propose an optimization algorithm to design (possibly complex) sensor gains…

Distributed Opportunistic Scheduling (DOS) techniques have been recently proposed to improve the throughput performance of wireless networks. With DOS, each station contends for the channel with a certain access probability. If a contention…

The detection of hidden two-dimensional Gauss-Markov random fields using sensor networks is considered. Under a conditional autoregressive model, the error exponent for the Neyman-Pearson detector satisfying a fixed level constraint is…

Determining whether nodes can be localized, called localizability detection, is essential for wireless sensor networks (WSNs). This step is required for localizing nodes, achieving low-cost deployments, and identifying prerequisites in…

In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), the sensed data by sensors need to be gathered, so that one very important application is periodical data collection. There is much effort which aimed at the data collection scheduling algorithm…

In this manuscript we study channel-aware decision fusion (DF) in a wireless sensor network (WSN) where: (i) the sensors transmit their decisions simultaneously for spectral efficiency purposes and the DF center (DFC) is equipped with…

Detecting the presence of a random wireless source with minimum latency utilizing an array of radio sensors is considered. The problem is studied under the constraint that the analog-to-digital conversion at each sensor is restricted to…

We study asymptotic performance of distributed detection in large scale connected sensor networks. Contrasting to the canonical parallel network where a single node has access to local decisions from all other nodes, each node can only…
