Abstract

Compressive data gathering (CDG) based on compressed sensing (CS) theory for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) greatly reduces the amount of data transmitted compared with the traditional acquisition method that each node forwards the collected data directly to the next node. CDG combined with sparse random projection can further reduce the amount of data and thus prolong the lifetime of the WSN. The method of randomly selecting projection nodes as cluster heads to collect the weighted sum of sensor nodes outperforms the non-CS (without using CS) and hybrid-CS (applying CS only to relay nodes that are overloaded) schemes in decreasing the communication cost and distributing the energy consumption loads. However, the random selection of projection nodes causes the overall energy consumption of the network to be unstable and unbalanced. In this paper, we propose two compressive data gathering methods of balanced projection nodes. For WSN with uniform distribution of nodes, an even clustering method based on spatial locations is proposed to distribute the projection nodes evenly and balance the network energy consumption. For WSN with unevenly distributed nodes, an even clustering method based on node density is proposed, taking into account the location and density of nodes together, balancing the network energy and prolonging the network lifetime. The simulation results show that compared with the random projection node method and the random walk method, our proposed methods have better network connectivity and more significantly increased overall network lifetime.
