Abstract

In the context of distributed estimation we consider the problem of sensor collaboration, which refers to the act of sharing measurements with neighboring sensors prior to transmission to a fusion center. While incorporating the cost of sensor collaboration, we aim to find optimal sparse collaboration topologies subject to a certain information or energy constraint. To achieve this goal, we present a tractable optimization framework and propose efficient methods to solve the formulated sensor collaboration problems. The effectiveness of our approach is demonstrated by numerical examples.
