Brain status information is captured by physiological electroencephalogram (EEG) signals, which are extensively used to study different brain activities. This study investigates the use of a new ensemble classifier to detect an epileptic seizure from compressed and noisy EEG signals. This noise-aware signal combination (NSC) ensemble classifier combines four classification models based on their individual performance. The main objective of the proposed classifier is to enhance the classification accuracy in the presence of noisy and incomplete information while preserving a reasonable amount of complexity. The experimental results show the effectiveness of the NSC technique, which yields higher accuracies of 90% for noiseless data compared with 85%, 85.9%, and 89.5% in other experiments. The accuracy for the proposed method is 80% when SNR = 1 dB, 84% when SNR = 5 dB, and 88% when SNR = 10 dB, while the compression ratio (CR) is 85.35% for all of the datasets mentioned.
Current lifestyles promote the development and advancement in wireless technologies, especially in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) due to its several benefits. WSN offers a low cost, low data rate, flexible routing, longer lifetime, and lowenergy consumption suitable for unmanned and long term monitoring. Among huge WSN applications, some key applications are smart houses, environmental monitoring, military applications, and other monitoring applications. As a result, ubiquitous increase in the number of wireless devices occupying the 2.4GHz frequency band. This causes a dense wireless connection followed by interference problem to WSN in the 2.4GHz frequency band. WSN is most affected by the interference issue because it has a lower data rate and transmission power compared to WLAN. Despite efforts made by researchers, to the author's knowledge, the interference issue is still a major problem in wireless networks. This paper aims to review the coexistence and interference issues of existing wireless technologies in the 2.4GHz Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) band.
Background Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are a promising area for both researchers and industry because of their various applications The sensor node expends the majority of its energy on communication with other nodes. Therefore, the routing protocol plays an important role in delivering network data while minimizing energy consumption as much as possible. The chain-based routing approach is superior to other approaches. However, chain-based routing protocols still expend substantial energy in the Chain Head (CH) node. In addition, these protocols also have the bottleneck issues.Methods A novel routing protocol which is Deterministic Chain-Based Routing Protocol (DCBRP). DCBRP consists of three mechanisms: Backbone Construction Mechanism, Chain Head Selection (CHS), and the Next Hop Connection Mechanism. The CHS mechanism is presented in detail, and it is evaluated through comparison with the CCM and TSCP using an ns-3 simulator.ResultsIt show that DCBRP outperforms both CCM and TSCP in terms of end-to-end delay by 19.3 and 65%, respectively, CH energy consumption by 18.3 and 23.0%, respectively, overall energy consumption by 23.7 and 31.4%, respectively, network lifetime by 22 and 38%, respectively, and the energy*delay metric by 44.85 and 77.54%, respectively.ConclusionDCBRP can be used in any deterministic node deployment applications, such as smart cities or smart agriculture, to reduce energy depletion and prolong the lifetimes of WSNs.
Brain is the most important part in the human body controlling muscles and nerves; Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals record brain electric activities. EEG signals capture important information pertinent to different physiological brain states. In this paper, we propose an efficient framework for evaluating the power-accuracy trade-off for EEG-based compressive sensing and classification techniques in the context of epileptic seizure detection in wireless tele-monitoring. The framework incorporates compressive sensing-based energyefficient compression, and noisy wireless communication channel to study the effect on the application accuracy. Discrete cosine transform (DCT) and compressive sensing are used for EEG signals acquisition and compression. To obtain low-complexity energy-efficient, the best data accuracy with higher compression ratio is sought. A reconstructed algorithm derived from DCT of daubechie's wavelet 6 is used to decompose the EEG signal at different levels. DCT is combined with the best basis function neural networks for EEG signals classification. Extensive experimental work is conducted, utilizing four classification models. The obtained results show an improvement in classification accuracies and an optimal classification rate of about 95% is achieved when using NN classifier at 85% of CR in the case of no SNR value. The satisfying results demonstrate the effect of efficient compression on maximizing the sensor lifetime without affecting the application's accuracy.
