Exploration of Distributed Image Compression and Transmission Algorithms for Wireless Sensor Networks

To prolong the life cycle of wireless sensor network, the basic theory of wavelet transform and its application in image compression are described, and several classic image compression algorithms based on wavelet transform are studied in depth. A compression algorithm combining the improved wavelet transform and Set Partitioning in Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT) algorithm of hierarchical wavelet tree set segmentation is proposed to effectively balance the energy consumption of each node in the sensor network and prolong the life of the whole wireless sensor network and an improved distributed image compression and transmission algorithm is proposed based on the distributed multi-node cooperative processing algorithm based on wavelet transformation, and detailed analytical test and energy consumption simulation experiment are carried out to verify the feasibility of the algorithm. The results show that the platform effectively implements and verifies the proposed algorithm, which can effectively realize the compression and transmission of distributed images, equalize the energy consumption of each sensor node in the network, and has strong practicability.
