Abstract

Fault-Tolerance is an important function in target tracking application using wireless sensor networks. We propose in this paper, an efficient fault-tolerant approach for target tracking that prevents the loss of the target. Instead of using a single prediction mechanism, our approach uses a multi-level incremental prediction technique that adjusts the prediction precision of the target movement. The responsible node of target detection uses multiple historical information pieces to calculate multi-level predictions which have different precision levels according to the number of information pieces used. Thanks to our parametric prediction model, our approach increases the prediction success rate and decreases the target loss frequency compared to basic approaches that use simple prediction models.
