Abstract
Link quality is important and can greatly affect the performance of wireless transmission algorithms and protocols. Currently, researchers have proposed a variety of approaches to implement link quality estimation. However, the estimated result of link quality is not accurate enough and the error is large, so they may lead to the failure of routing algorithm and protocol. In this paper, a novel method is proposed to achieve the more accurate estimation of link quality than before. This method employs Bernoulli sampling-based algorithm to complete the estimation of link quality. The problem is modeled as calculation of estimators based on Bernoulli sampling data. The authors further prove that the calculation results are accurate by probability theory. Furthermore, according to link quality estimation, the authors also provide a centralized routing algorithm and a distributed improvement algorithm in order to switch the data transmission on the better quality link. Finally, the extensive experiment results indicate that the proposed methods obtain high performance in terms of energy consumption and accuracy.
