Constrained bandwidth allocation in multi-sensor information fusion: A mechanism design approach

Journal article

Sensor networks are increasingly seen as a solution for a large number of environmental, security and military monitoring tasks. Typically, in these networks, noisy data from a number of local sensors is fused to reduce the uncertainty in the global picture. A central issue in this information fusion is the decision of what data should be shared between sensors, in order to maximise the global gain in information, when the bandwidth of the communication network is limited. In this paper, we s...
