Distributed energy consumption minimization for lossless data gathering wireless sensor networks
Volkan Dedeoglu, Sylvie Perreau, Alex J. Grant · 2012
In this paper, we propose a distributed optimization algorithm that minimizes the energy consumption of lossless data gathering wireless sensor networks by allocating variable transmit power and data compression/transmission rate to each sensor node. Using the Lagrange duality, we decompose the convex energy consumption minimization problem into subproblems, which can be solved by the sensor nodes distributively. The convergence of the iterative algorithm is demonstrated by the simulations.
