Abstract

A key factor in a successful sensor network deployment is finding a good balance between maximizing the number of measurements taken (to maintain a good sampling rate) and minimizing the overall energy consumption (to extend the network lifetime). In this work, we present a data-driven statistical model to optimize this tradeoff. Our approach takes advantage of the multivariate nature of the data collected by a heterogeneous sensor network to learn spatio-temporal patterns. These patterns enable us to employ an aggressive duty cycling policy on the individual sensor nodes, thereby reducing the overall energy consumption. Our experiments with the OMNeT++ network simulator using realistic wireless channel conditions, on data collected from two real-world sensor networks, show that we can sample just 20% of the data and can reconstruct the remaining 80% of the data with less than 9% mean error, outperforming similar techniques such is distributed compressive sampling. In addition, energy savings ranging up to 76%, depending on the sampling rate and the hardware configuration of the node.
