A novel approach for improving error detection and correction in WSN

In this paper, error detection and correction algorithms are studied and a novel approach is proposed to increase the speed of computations using the polynomial residue number system (PRNS) in a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). The proposed approach employs a Cyclical Redundancy Code (CRC) to reduce the number of gates required in the PRNS. It is compared with a binary number contender in terms of speed, number of gates for adder implementation, propagation delay and power consumption. Comparison results show the competence of the proposed method in comparison with the binary number contender.
