A Distributed Image Compression Algorithm for Wireless Multimedia Sensorn Networks

摘要

Recent advances in multimedia sensor networks made the image sensors applicable in many different types of sensor network applications such as environmental monitoring, surveillance and target tracking. Especially for image based applications, image data is needed to be compressed due to the requirement of large amount of data for representing the visual data. Although image compression is made for gaining from the energy consumption, this process requires very high computational power when an o
