| Research Abstract |
In this project, we have promoted studies on data forwarding mechanisms which realize sensor data gathering with higher reliability and lower load, considering wireless sensor networks that utilize mobile devices moving freely such as human-carried smart phones as mobile sinks. Specifically, we have proposed communication protocols for realizing efficient data forwarding toward mobile sinks, and traffic reduction methods which make use of characteristics of sensor readings. We have made public our research achievements in journals and conferences. Our research papers include an international journal and some internationally known conferences. Furthermore, a part of our achievements have been published in a book chapter.
