Image Transmission Model with Quality of Service and Energy Economy in Wireless Multimedia Sensor Network

Abstract

Abstract-The objective of this article is to present the efficiency of image compression in the Wireless Multimedia Sensor Network (WMSN), the method used in this work is based on the lifting scheme coupled with the SPIHT coding to wavelet biorthogonal CDF 9/7. The effectiveness of this technique results in combining two advantages. First it allows saving energy to prolong the life of the network; second, it improves the Quality of Service (QoS) in terms of average throughput, the number of dropped packets, and End-to-End average delay. The authors examined two scenarios of the same network model in NS2 simulator, according to the above critical points of the energy economy and quality of service, the first scenario transmits an original image, and the second sends the compressed image with the used method. The simulation results presented show that the proposed system allows to extend the life of the network and minimizes the consumption of energy; and it can transmit the image in comfortable conditions for QoS of network, reduce the End-to-End average delay, no dropped packet, best average throughput and satisfied for bandwidth.
