Research on the Wireless Sensor Network Data Fusion Technology

Abstract

Wireless sensor network ( WSN ) is a kind of energy constrained network, by using data fusion technology, the elimination of redundant data, can save energy, prolong the network life purpose. Data fusion in wireless sensor network can realize different protocol layers, Based on the introduction of wireless sensor network and data fusion related knowledge, prove that the arithmetic mean method is effective, and use OPNET software tool for network simulation, finally, analysis results and conclude, verify effects of the arithmetic average fusion algorithm for wireless sensor network.
