A Trusted QoS Architecture for Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks

Abstract:

Developing trusted QoS architecture is important for wireless multimedia sensor networks considering various applications with different QoS requirements. First, the diverse multimedia traffic were analyzed and classified based on application requirements, service model, and multimedia coding method in wireless multimedia sensor networks. And the QoS requirements related to the multimedia traffic were also discussed. Then, a trust management framework was designed for cluster-based wireless multimedia sensor networks. The proposed framework can be used to next-hop selection in secure routing protocol. Finally, trusted QoS architecture was proposed. In the architecture, QoS manager observes and maintains information about QoS factors, and also responsible for QoS scheduling based on different QoS requirements. Trust Manager observes and maintains information about trust factors in WMSNs, and also responsible for trust computing based on different methods of trust factors aggregation.
