Method and system for obtaining and storing sensor data

Abstract

A computer-executable method and system for querying sensor data of a plurality of sensors is provided. Sensor data is received that comprising sensor data values sampled by a first sensor of said plurality of sensors according to a first compressive sampling scheme. The first compressive sampling scheme can be applied by the first sensor within a sampling time window and the received sensor data corresponds to samples of a signal within the sampling time window. The sensor data is stored in a first database. A frequency decomposition of the signal is computed based on a sparsifying transform associated with the first compressive sampling scheme and the received sensor data. The frequency decomposition comprises one or more frequency components. The one or more frequency components are stored in a second database. A query is received from a client. The query specifies an event that indicates a critical signal condition of a signal. It is detected whether the event exists using the received sensor data or the one or more frequency components.
