Sensor network sensor registry system path prediction Stability

The sensor registry system has been developed for instant use and seamless interpretation of sensor data in a heterogeneous sensor network environment. However, the existing sensor registry system cannot provide information for interpretation of the sensor data in situations in which the network is unstable. This limitation causes several problems such as sensor data loss, inaccuracy of processed results, and low service quality. A method to resolve such problems in the aspect of software is presented herein. In other words, an extended sensor registry system is proposed to enable the stable use of sensor information, even under conditions of unstable network connection, by providing sensor information with a mobile device in advance through the user path prediction. The results of experiments and evaluation are also presented. The extended sensor registry system proposed in this paper enhances the stable usability of sensor information as well as improves the quality of sensor-based services.
