description | This paper discusses a node selection problem for bearings-only tracking in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Saving energy and prolonging the lifetime of the network are the research focuses due to the severely constrained resource of WSNs. An energy-efficient network management strategy is necessary to achieve good tracking performance at low cost. In this paper, an energy-efficient node selection algorithm for bearings-only sensors in decentralized sensor networks is proposed. The residual energy of a node is incorporated into the objective function of node selection. A new criterion of node selection is also made to coordinate with the objective function. Compared with the other common methods, the proposed method can reduce the cost of the entire network, balance nodes energy expenditure, and extend the lifetime of network. Simulation results prove the effectiveness of the proposed method and show good performance in tracking accuracy and energy consumption. |
