Abstract

Aircraft Prognostic and Health Management (PHM) is a system which could diagnose device faults and assess its health status. Due to the complexity of the airborne environment, the aircraft PHM uses Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) technology to collect and transmit data. In this paper, a Power Control Algorithm based on Small World (PCS) is proposed to reduce the network delay. The PCS algorithm adds several shortcuts into the network based on the small world theory and uses genetic algorithm to optimize the shortcuts. Simulation results demonstrate that this method can effectively shorten the average path length and reduce the network delay.
