Highly Efficient Data Gathering with Tendency Prediction based on Position Information of Event in Wireless Sensor Networks

Environmental monitoring with wireless sensor networks is attracting much attentions. If the event giving the impact to dramatically change the environment occurs, the suitable sensors should be requested to send the sensing information for the highly accurate environmental monitoring. This paper proposes the sensor selection scheme based on the location information of event. In the proposed scheme, the spatial tendency of sensing information is predicted from the location information of event and then the suitable sensors are selected.
