【 摘 要 】

Unlike classical wired networks and wireless sensor networks, WMSN differs from their predecessor’s scalar network basically in the following points; nature and size of data being transmitted, important memory resources, as well as, power consumed per each node for processing and transmission. The most effective solution to overcome those problems is image compression. As the image contains massive amount of redundancies resulting from high correlation between pixels, many compression algorithms have been developed. The main objective of this survey was to study and analyze relevant research directions and the most recent algorithms of image compression over WMSN. This survey characterizes the benefits and shortcomings of recent efforts of such algorithms. Moreover, it provides an open research issue for each compression method; and its potentials to WMSN. Reducing consumed power thus granting long life time is considered the main performance metric and will be the main target in the investigated solution.
