Description
Summary:The lifetime of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) has been significantly extended, while in long-term large-scale WSN applications, the increasing sensor drift has become a key problem affecting the reliability of sensory data. In this paper, we propose a blind online drift calibration framework based on subspace projection and sparse recovery for sensor networks in general-purpose monitoring. Temporal sparse Bayesian learning is used in the proposed method to estimate the sensor drift from under-sampled observations. The proposed method needs neither dense deployment nor the presence of a prior data model. Both simulated and real-world data set are used to evaluate the proposed method. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can detect and recover the sensor drift when the number of drifted sensors are less than 20%, and when 40% sensors are drifted, the recovery rate is 80%.
