Research

I am working in the wireless sensor networks. Especialy, i focus on localization, routing and broadcast problem (for static or mobile sensor networks).

Localization problem: After deployment, sensors have to deduce exact or estimated positions according to some sensors (called anchors) equipped with localization module (e.g. Galileo, GPS, ...). Sensors can measure distance or angle with technologies ToA, RSSI, AoA,... Due to energy constraints, the number of anchors has to be very small.

Routing problem: when a sensor detects an event, it has to alert a base station. To route its message towards this destination, it uses a multi-hops routing according to sensor geographic positions.

Broadcast problem: in some applications, a sensor has to communicate a message to all other sensors in the network. Due to energy constraints, a simple flooding cannot be apply in sensor networks. An broadcast strategy has to be defined.

Each sensor is equipped with little battery and all these problems have to minimize energy consumption. Therefore, The number of computations and communications have to be minimized.



Keywords : network, ad hoc, wirless, sensor, localization, routing, broadcast, energy.
