Abstract
A distinguished node is dynamically selected from a subset of nodes in a wireless network. Data samples from the subset of nodes are received in view of the distinguished node status. At least one estimate is generated from the data samples and the data samples are compressed conditioned on the estimate.
Claims19
A method for compressing data, comprising:
- negotiating a distinguished node status for a subset of nodes in a wireless sensor network;
- receiving data samples collected from the subset of nodes in view of the distinguished node status;
- generating at least one estimate from the data samples;
- and
- compressing the data samples conditioned on the estimate.
2 more elements
A wireless node, comprising:
- a negotiation module to dynamically negotiate a distinguished node status with other nodes in a wireless network;
- a receiver to receive sensory data from other nodes in the wireless network in view of the distinguished node status;
- an estimation module to generate at least one estimate from the sensory data;
- a data compressor to compress sensory data conditioned on the estimate;
- a transmitter to send compressed sensory data to a processing station.
2 more elements
A computer-readable storage medium containing instructions that, when executed, cause a computer to:
- dynamically negotiate a distinguished node status with other nodes in a wireless network;
- generate at least one estimate based at least in part on sensory data received from other nodes in the wireless network;
- and
- compress sensory data conditioned on the estimate.
