We consider the problem of sequential binary hypothesis testing with a distributed sensor network in a non-Gaussian noise environment. To this end, we present a general formulation of the Consensus + Innovations Sequential Probability Ratio Test (CISPRT). Furthermore, we introduce two different concepts for robustifying the CISPRT and propose four different algorithms, namely, the Least-Favorable-Density-CISPRT, the Median-CISPRT, the M-CISPRT, and the Myriad-CISPRT. Subsequently, we analyze their suitability for different binary hypothesis tests before verifying and evaluating their performance in a shift-in-mean and a shift-in-variance scenario.

We consider nonparametric sequential hypothesis testing problem when the distribution under the null hypothesis is fully known but the alternate hypothesis corresponds to some other unknown distribution with some loose constraints. We propose a simpl
e algorithm to address the problem. These problems are primarily motivated from wireless sensor networks and spectrum sensing in Cognitive Radios. A decentralized version utilizing spatial diversity is also proposed. Its performance is analysed and asymptotic properties are proved. The simulated and analysed performance of the algorithm is compared with an earlier algorithm addressing the same problem with similar assumptions. We also modify the algorithm for optimizing performance when information about the prior probabilities of occurrence of the two hypotheses are known.
The problem of designing optimal quantization rules for sequential detectors is investigated. First, it is shown that this task can be solved within the general framework of active sequential detection. Using this approach, the optimal sequential det
ector and the corresponding quantizer are characterized and their properties are briefly discussed. In particular, it is shown that designing optimal quantization rules requires solving a nonconvex optimization problem, which can lead to issues in terms of computational complexity and numerical stability. Motivated by these difficulties, two performance bounds are proposed that are easier to evaluate than the true performance measures and are potentially tighter than the bounds currently available in the literature. The usefulness of the bounds and the properties of the optimal quantization rules are illustrated with two numerical examples.
Random linear network codes can be designed and implemented in a distributed manner, with low computational complexity. However, these codes are classically implemented over finite fields whose size depends on some global network parameters (size of
the network, the number of sinks) that may not be known prior to code design. Also, if new nodes join the entire network code may have to be redesigned. In this work, we present the first universal and robust distributed linear network coding schemes. Our schemes are universal since they are independent of all network parameters. They are robust since if nodes join or leave, the remaining nodes do not need to change their coding operations and the receivers can still decode. They are distributed since nodes need only have topological information about the part of the network upstream of them, which can be naturally streamed as part of the communication protocol. We present both probabilistic and deterministic schemes that are all asymptotically rate-optimal in the coding block-length, and have guarantees of correctness. Our probabilistic designs are computationally efficient, with order-optimal complexity. Our deterministic designs guarantee zero error decoding, albeit via codes with high computational complexity in general. Our coding schemes are based on network codes over ``scalable fields. Instead of choosing coding coefficients from one field at every node, each node uses linear coding operations over an ``effective field-size that depends on the nodes distance from the source node. The analysis of our schemes requires technical tools that may be of independent interest. In particular, we generalize the Schwartz-Zippel lemma by proving a non-uniform version, wherein variables are chosen from sets of possibly different sizes. We also provide a novel robust distributed algorithm to assign unique IDs to network nodes.
The paper develops DILOC, a emph{distributive}, emph{iterative} algorithm that locates M sensors in $mathbb{R}^m, mgeq 1$, with respect to a minimal number of m+1 anchors with known locations. The sensors exchange data with their neighbors only; no c
entralized data processing or communication occurs, nor is there centralized knowledge about the sensors locations. DILOC uses the barycentric coordinates of a sensor with respect to its neighbors that are computed using the Cayley-Menger determinants. These are the determinants of matrices of inter-sensor distances. We show convergence of DILOC by associating with it an absorbing Markov chain whose absorbing states are the anchors. We introduce a stochastic approximation version extending DILOC to random environments when the knowledge about the intercommunications among sensors and the inter-sensor distances are noisy, and the communication links among neighbors fail at random times. We show a.s. convergence of the modified DILOC and characterize the error between the final estimates and the true values of the sensors locations. Numerical studies illustrate DILOC under a variety of deterministic and random operating conditions.
In this paper, a clustered wireless sensor network is considered that is modeled as a set of coupled Gaussian multiple-access channels. The objective of the network is not to reconstruct individual sensor readings at designated fusion centers but rat
her to reliably compute some functions thereof. Our particular attention is on real-valued functions that can be represented as a post-processed sum of pre-processed sensor readings. Such functions are called nomographic functions and their special structure permits the utilization of the interference property of the Gaussian multiple-access channel to reliably compute many linear and nonlinear functions at significantly higher rates than those achievable with standard schemes that combat interference. Motivated by this observation, a computation scheme is proposed that combines a suitable data pre- and post-processing strategy with a nested lattice code designed to protect the sum of pre-processed sensor readings against the channel noise. After analyzing its computation rate performance, it is shown that at the cost of a reduced rate, the scheme can be extended to compute every continuous function of the sensor readings in a finite succession of steps, where in each step a different nomographic function is computed. This demonstrates the fundamental role of nomographic representations.
