METHOD FOR ROBUST DATA COLLECTION SCHEMES FOR LARGE GRID WIRELESS NETWORKS

摘要

If the number of rows in a matrix of wireless devices is greater than the number of columns, then vertical sweeping is performed including passing data along each of the columns of wireless devices to an end wireless device in each column. If the number of rows is less than the number of columns, then horizontal sweeping is performed including passing data along each of the rows of wireless devices to an end wireless device in each row. If the number of rows is equal to the number of columns, then diagonal sweeping is performed including passing data diagonally across each of the rows and columns of wireless devices to an end wireless device in each row and each column. The data is passed along the end wireless devices to a final destination data collector.
