Resumo

Adaptive networks (ANs) are effective real time techniques to process and track events observed by sensor networks and, more recently, to equip Internet of Things (IoT) applications. ANs operate over nodes equipped with collaborative adaptive filters that solve distributively an estimation problem common to the whole network. However, they do not guarantee that nodes do not lose from cooperation, as compared to its non-cooperative operation; that poor nodes are rejected and exceptional nodes estimates reach the entire network; and that performance is uniform over all nodes. In order to enforce such properties, this work introduces the concept of distributed universal estimation, which encompasses the new concepts of local universality, global universality and universality with respect to the non-cooperative operation. We then construct a new cooperation protocol that is proven to be distributively universal, outperforming direct competitors from the literature, as shown by several simulations. Mean and mean-square analytical models are developed, with good agreement between theory and simulations. (AU)
