Abstract:
Wireless sensor networks can be regarded as sensor database systems, which permit users to query sensor data of interest. Among various spatial database queries, we focus the area-wise aggregate queries in the region where the sensor values are above a predefined threshold, which are summarized as above-threshold queries. In this paper, we propose a novel Bilinear Interpolation-Based (BIB) algorithm, which utilizes the bilinear interpolation to estimate the environmental variables inside a grid with the known sensor values at the vertexes, to support the above-threshold queries for regularly-deployed sensor networks and provide the closed-form solution of the above-threshold ratio. We designate experiments with both the artificially-constructed environment data and the real temperature data. Experiment results manifest that the proposed BIB algorithm shows a good performance in estimating the above-threshold ratios to support the above-threshold queries in an accurate and efficient manner.
