ABSTRACT
As a completely new information acquisition and processing technology, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) has extensive application prospects in environmental monitoring, target tracking, intelligent transportation, intrusion detection, and so on. In these applications, when receiving the monitoring information, in many cases, one should know the location information of WSN sensor nodes. However, no matter which localization method one adopts, the rapid and accurate characteristic extraction is always one of the key techniques of WSNs. In this paper, we will explore a new characteristic extraction technology in WSNs. By separately computing the scores of related dimensions, we can obtain the final comprehensive information characteristic of all nodes. All of the characteristic analysis results are precise and credible.
