Abstract:
A method for managing node faults in a sensor network and a fault generation report apparatus for the same are provided to determine a type and class of the node fault generated in a node configuring the sensor network and report the determination result to an upper node, so that an upper system is able to effectively manage the node faults and grasp a state of the sensor network. A node fault processor(224,226,228) determines a fault ID(Identification) indicating a type of a fault and a fault class showing a degree of the fault when a frequency of faults generated in a node is bigger than a predetermined frequency. A message generator(222) generates a fault report message including the determined fault ID and fault class, and transmits the generated fault report message to an upper node. A memory(230) stores matching information of the fault glass and the degree of the node faults.
Abstract:
A location recognition method selectively using a neighbor node having fewer fault factors and a node apparatus using the same are provided to exactly recognize the location of a node by selectively using a node having less fault factors for triangulation in a sensor network. If a target node for location recognition is selected(S1001), the target node selects an anchor node having the nearest estimation distance as the initial reference node(S1002). Then the target node selects a node having the nearest estimation distance, next to the initial reference node, as a test node(S1003). Then the target node selects a representative reference node to judge whether the test node can be added as a reference node(S1004). The representative reference node estimates the distance(Rij) from the test node using RSS(Received Signal Strength) or ToA(Time of Arrival), and acquires the actual distance(Lij) from the test node using its own coordinates and the coordinates of the test node(S1005). The representative reference node obtains the absolute of "Rij - Lij" using the acquired distance information and judges whether the obtained value is within the range of an allowable error(S1006). In case the obtained value is within the range of the allowable error, the representative reference node notifies the target node of it, and also transmits the actual distance information(Lij). The target node estimates the distances(Ri) from the representative reference node and the distance(Rj) from the test node using RSS or ToA(S1008). Then the target node obtains the absolute of "Ri + Rj - Lij" and judges whether the obtained value meets a threshold(S1009). If so, the target node adds the test node as a reference node(S1010). If searching is completed for all the neighbor anchors, the target node acquires exact location information by executing triangulation using selected reference nodes(S1012).
Abstract:
A node for location recognition, a cluster formation method using the node, and a location recognition method are provided to enable nodes disposed in an environment where a lot of obstacles exist to form clusters by themselves, and to enable a node which requires location recognition to find out a self cluster as using triangulation inside the found cluster, thus more exact location recognition is available. A location information message unit(110) receives more than one location information message including information indicative of spatial locations within a sensor network from more than one neighboring node existing in the sensor network. A distance value calculator(120) individually calculates the first distance value with the neighboring nodes based on more than one piece of location information included in the location information messages and the second distance value with the neighboring nodes based on one of transmission speed and transmission strength of the messages. A cluster forming unit(130) forms clusters with plural neighboring nodes in which a difference between the first and second distance values is smaller than a predetermined threshold value.
Abstract:
A sensor data managing method for low power in a sensor network is provided to define an existed previous measurement value as the current measurement value of the sensor data when the current measurement value of the sensor data and the existed previous measurement value are same within an error range, thereby effectively transmitting data and reducing power consumption. A sensor data managing method for low power in a sensor network comprises the following steps of: determining whether the current measurement value of the sensor data and an existed previous measurement value are same when the sensor data is measured(S102); transmitting a signal for indicating the determined result(S103); and storing the previous measurement value in a node table and renewing time stamp of the node table when the signal indicates that the current measurement value of the sensor data and the existed previous measurement value are same is received(S104).
Abstract:
A topology management method of a sensor network using a topology management table is provided to enable a sink node to receive a report on topology information through communication between parent and child nodes and manage topology information of the sensor network, thereby efficiently maintaining/managing the topology information of the sensor network which is continuously changed. If a new child node is added to a parent node, a child node ID is allocated to the added child node, and the child node and the parent node individually generate topology management tables(200). The parent node reports changed topology information to a sink node from the topology management table(210,220). The sink node compares the reported topology information with the overall topology information. If a parent node of sibling of the added child node is different from the existing parent node of the overall topology information, deletion information of the added child node is notified to the existing parent node.
