Adaptive image compression in wireless sensor networks
Benfilali Mostefa, Sofiane Boukli Hacene · 2016
The main obstacle to transmit images in wireless sensor networks is the lack of an appropriate strategy for processing the large volume of data such as images. The high rate packets errors because of what numbers very high packets carrying the data of the captured images and the need for retransmission in case of errors, and more, the energy reserve and band bandwidth is insufficient to accomplish these tasks. This paper presents new effective technique called “Background subtraction” to compress, process and transmit the images in a wireless sensor network. The practical results show the effectiveness of this approach to make the image compression in the networks of wireless sensors achievable, reliable and efficient in terms of energy and the minimization of amount of image data.
