Signal Processing-Assisted Protocols and Algorithms for Cooperating Objects and Wireless Sensor Networks

  1. We present a mathematical model to study decentralized detection in clustered wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Sensors and fusion centers (FCs) are distributed with the aim of detecting an event of interest. S...
