Abstract

In Wireless Sensor and Actor Networks (WSANs), sensors and actors collaborate together to get the information about the physical environment and perform appropriate actions. In order to provide effective sensing and acting, a distributed local coordination mechanism is necessary among sensors and actors. The degree of errors encountered during data transmission over a communication is different. The higher the error rate, the less reliable the connection or data transfer will be. In this work, we consider the actor node selection problem and propose a fuzzy-based system that based on data provided by sensors and actors selects an appropriate actor node. We use 4 input parameters: Job Type (JT), Distance to Event (DE), Remaining Energy (RE) and different from our previous work we consider the Actor-Sensor Coordination Quality (ASCQ) parameter. The output parameter is Actor Selection Decision (ASD). Based on these parameters, the simulation results show that the proposed system makes a proper selection of actor nodes.
