Abstract
Multimedia delivery over Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is energy critical. In this paper, we study an energy constrained cross layer optimization scheme to improve digital image quality in cross polarization discrimination (XPD) based Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) WSNs. The contribution of this research can be summarized in three parts. First, link layer energy consumption and packet loss ratio in multirate XPD based MIMO WSN are modeled. Secondly, XPD based modulation optimization cross link and physical layer is proposed, achieving considerable energy efficiency. Finally, a new Position-Value (P- V) based Unequal Error Protection (UEP) scheme is studied and discussed in XPD MIMO WSNs, with more efficient resource allocation compared to traditional approaches. Simulation results show the proposed modulation optimization scheme improves energy efficiency considerably, and position based UEP achieves significant distortion-energy gain compared with traditional layer based resource allocation schemes in XPD MIMO WSNs.
