Optimal sensor scheduling and remote estimation over an additive noise channel
In the applications of wireless sensor networks, sensors are built to measure the state of the system of interest and send their measurements to a remote decision unit via wireless communication. Based on the messages received from the sensors, the decision unit estimates the state of the system …

Uniform positive recurrence and long term behavior of Markov decision processes, with applications in sensor scheduling
… noise and quadratic costs, observed via multiple sensors that communicate over a congested network. Observations are lost or received according to a Bernoulli random variable with a loss rate determined by the state of the network and the choice of sensor. We completely analyze the finite horizon, …

Managing resources on a multi-modal sensing device for energy-aware state estimation
… of a smartphone, mobile computing device, remote sensor node, or a sensor-packed robot, they are used almost everywhere. Often these devices run on battery power or on energy harvested from the environment. In these situations, energy is at a premium, and resources must be intelligently managed to …

Scheduling And Resource Allocation In Wireless Sensor Networks
… science and telecommunications, wireless sensor networks are an active research area. Each sensor in a wireless sensor network has some pre-defined or on demand tasks such as collecting or disseminating data. Network resources, such as broadcast channels, number of sensors, power, battery …

State Estimation for Distributed and Hybrid Systems
… The first part also contains an example of a sensor-actuator network, where a mobile robot navigates using both local sensors and information from a sensor network. This system was implemented using a component-based framework. The second part develops, a recursive joint maximum a posteriori …

Dynamic sensor tasking in heterogeneous, mobile sensor networks
Modern sensor environments often attempt to combine several sensors into a single sensor network. The nodes of this network are generally heterogeneous and may vary with respect to sensor complexity, sensor operational modes, power costs and other salient features. Optimization in this environment …

Performance optimization for unmanned vehicle systems
… making level of the UVS also needs to solve a sensor scheduling problem. We consider M UAVs monitoring N > M sites with independent Markovian dynamics, and treat two important examples arising in this and other contexts, such as wireless channel or radar waveform selection. In the first …

Scalable online estimation with performance guarantees: Application to traffic network monitoring
… used for traffic estimation. Next, we study sensor scheduling schemes designed to select the most informative data to transmit to the estimator, thus reducing data transmission while preserving estimation accuracy. In this context, we propose a filtering algorithm that extracts the implicit …

Mission Planning Tool for space debris studies with the MeerKAT radar
… of a Mission Planning Tool (MPT) to perform sensor scheduling and to support the performance prediction and analysis of the proposed MeerKAT radar. The MeerKAT radar project proposal is made in the context of developing space surveillance and tracking capacities in South Africa. The MeerKAT …
