A novel contour mapping scheme based on Bezier curves for wireless sensor networks
SENS-T
is presented to solve the problem of energy limits in using wireless sensor networks to monitor environments. The scheme uses contours to represent the distribution of environment attribute value
that is
the contour is divided into pieces of Bezier curves
the shape and the position information of each Bezier curve is collected to one deputy node and is reported to the sink; and the sink uses the nodes coordinates and the received curve information to rebuild the contour curve. The number of report nodes is determined by the number of Bezier curve segments so that the traditional method that reports the information of all nodes on the contour is reformed. Simulation results show that the energy and bandwidth of network are saved efficiently by SENS-T
and a comparison with the traditional method at the same accuracy of counter mapping shows that the SENS-T saves approximately 45% network energy.
