The invention discloses a two-tiered
wireless sensor network range query method capable of verifying
privacy protection. The two-tiered
wireless sensor network range query method capable of verifying
privacy protection includes the data collection protocol step and the query execution and
verification protocol step. The data collection protocol step includes the procedures that sensor data are periodically collected by sensor nodes and subjected to bucket partitioning, data buckets are encrypted,
verification code information of redundant buckets is worked out, corresponding
data messages are constructed and uploaded to storage nodes, and the
data messages are collected and then stored through the storage nodes. The query execution and
verification protocol step includes the procedures that query instructions containing minimum tag sets corresponding to target zones are constructed by a
base station and sent to the storage nodes, the storage nodes execute query
processing and return corresponding query feedback messages, the
base station decrypts the feedback messages and works out final query results, and finally query result consistency is verified. The protocol steps of the method are simple, privacy security of sensitive data can be guaranteed, and the query results can be verified; the in-
network communication cost of the sensor nodes is low, and prolonging of the life cycle of a whole network is facilitated.
