On rendezvous in mobile sensing networks
- In Springer RealWSN
, 2013
"... Abstract A rendezvous is a temporal and spatial vicinity of two sensors. In this paper, we investigate rendezvous in the context of mobile sensing systems. We use an air quality dataset obtained with the OpenSense monitoring network to explore rendezvous properties for carbon monoxide, ozone, temper ..."

Sampling trajectories for mobile sensing
- In Proc. 2011 49th Annual Allerton Conference on Communication, Control, and Computing (Allerton
, 2011
"... Abstract—Classical sampling theory for sampling and re-constructing bandlimited fields in Rd addresses the problem of sampling on lattice points. We consider a generalization of this problem, in which one samples the field along 1-dimensional spatial trajectories in Rd rather than at points. The pro ..."

. The process of sampling records the value of the field at all points on the sampling trajectories. Such a sampling setup is relevant in the problem of spatial sampling using mobile sensors. We study various possible designs of sampling trajectories and discuss necessary and sufficient conditions for perfect
A message ferrying approach for data delivery in sparse mobile ad hoc networks
