Abstract: In the context of distributed estimation, we consider the problem of sensor collaboration, which refers to the act of sharing measurements with neighboring sensors prior to transmission to a fusion center. While incorporating the cost of sensor collaboration, we aim to find optimal sparse collaboration schemes subject to a certain information or energy constraint. Two types of sensor collaboration problems are studied: minimum energy with an information constraint; and maximum information with an energy constraint. To solve the resulting sensor collaboration problems, we present tractable optimization formulations and propose efficient methods which render near-optimal solutions in numerical experiments. We also explore the situation in which there is a cost associated with the involvement of each sensor in the estimation scheme. In such situations, the participating sensors must be chosen judiciously. We introduce a unified framework to jointly design the optimal sensor selection and collaboration schemes. For a given estimation performance, we show empirically that there exists a trade-off between sensor selection and sensor collaboration.
