Sensor personalization is a form of device to device (D2D) communi- cation in which user devices (UDs), such as smart phones and tablet PCs, directly communicate with various sensor devices (SDs) consisting of various sensors and communication modules. In this paper, we first introduce two widely used sensor personalization schemes named coordinator-based sensor personalization (CSP) and direct sensor personalization (DSP). Then, based on the advantages and dis- advantages of the two schemes, we propose an energy-efficient hybrid sensor personalization (HSP) scheme that is more suitable for D2D communications in the domain of energy-limited wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Through ana- lytical models, we show that the proposed HSP scheme outperforms other two schemes in terms of the energy consumption of network devices.
