Abstract:

Previous work on decentralized estimation has assumed unlimited capacity on the communication channels between the sensors and the estimators. In practice, this is not possible increased traffic rate leads to network congestion and decreased performance. This thesis develops optimum reporting schedules for sensors, routing schemes for messages and data fusion algorithms for intermediate nodes. Author
