We propose an algorithm which produces a randomized strategy reaching optimal data propagation in wireless sensor networks (WSN).In [6] and [8], an energy balanced solution is sought using an approximation algorithm. Our algorithm improves by (a) when an energy-balanced solution does not exist, it still finds an optimal solution (whereas previous algorithms did not consider this case and provide no useful solution) (b) instead of being an approximation algorithm, it finds the exact solution in one pass. We also provide a rigorous proof of the optimality of our solution.

We consider the problem of sensor localization in a wireless network in a multipath environment, where time and angle of arrival information are available at each sensor. We propose a distributed algorithm based on belief propagation, which allows sensors to cooperatively self-localize with respect to one single anchor in a multihop network. The algorithm has low overhead and is scalable. Simulations show that although the network is loopy, the proposed algorithm converges, and achieves good localization accuracy.
This invited paper presents some novel ideas on how to enhance the performance of consensus algorithms in distributed wireless sensor networks, when communication costs are considered. Of particular interest are consensus algorithms that exploit the broadcast property of the wireless channel to boost the performance in terms of convergence speeds. To this end, we propose a novel clustering based consensus algorithm that exploits interference for computation, while reducing the energy consumption in the network. The resulting optimization problem is a semidefinite program, which can be solved offline prior to system startup.
We investigate the condition on transmission radius needed to achieve connectivity in duty-cycled wireless sensor networks (briefly, DC-WSN). First, we settle a conjecture of Das et. al. (2012) and prove that the connectivity condition on Random Geometric Graphs (RGG), given by Gupta and Kumar (1989), can be used to derive a weak sufficient condition to achieve connectivity in DC-WSN. To find a stronger result, we define a new vertex-based random connection model which is of independent interest. Following a proof technique of Penrose (1991) we prove that when the density of the nodes approaches infinity then a finite component of size greater than 1 exists with probability 0 in this model. We use this result to obtain an optimal condition on node transmission radius which is both necessary and sufficient to achieve connectivity and is hence optimal. The optimality of such a radius is also tested via simulation for two specific duty-cycle schemes, called the contiguous and the random selection duty-cycle scheme. Finally, we design a minimum-radius duty-cycling scheme that achieves connectivity with a transmission radius arbitrarily close to the one required in Random Geometric Graphs. The overhead in this case is that we have to spend some time computing the schedule.
We study wireless power transmission by an energy source to multiple energy harvesting nodes with the aim to maximize the energy efficiency. The source transmits energy to the nodes using one of the available power levels in each time slot and the nodes transmit information back to the energy source using the harvested energy. The source does not have any channel state information and it only knows whether a received codeword from a given node was successfully decoded or not. With this limited information, the source has to learn the optimal power level that maximizes the energy efficiency of the network. We model the problem as a stochastic Multi-Armed Bandits problem and develop an Upper Confidence Bound based algorithm, which learns the optimal transmit power of the energy source that maximizes the energy efficiency. Numerical results validate the performance guarantees of the proposed algorithm and show significant gains compared to the benchmark schemes.
We study a wireless ad-hoc sensor network (WASN) where $N$ sensors gather data from the surrounding environment and transmit their sensed information to $M$ fusion centers (FCs) via multi-hop wireless communications. This node deployment problem is formulated as an optimization problem to make a trade-off between the sensing uncertainty and energy consumption of the network. Our primary goal is to find an optimal deployment of sensors and FCs to minimize a Lagrange combination of the sensing uncertainty and energy consumption. To support arbitrary routing protocols in WASNs, the routing-dependent necessary conditions for the optimal deployment are explored. Based on these necessary conditions, we propose a routing-aware Lloyd algorithm to optimize node deployment. Simulation results show that, on average, the proposed algorithm outperforms the existing deployment algorithms.
