Big data transmission in wireless sensor network (WSN) consumes energy while the node in WSN is energy-limited, and the data transmitted needs to be encrypted resulting from the ease of being eavesdropped in WSN links. Compressive sensing (CS) can encrypt data and reduce the data volume to solve these two problems. However, the nodes in WSNs are not only energy-limited, but also storage and calculation resource-constrained. The traditional CS uses the measurement matrix as the secret key, which consumes a huge storage space. Moreover, the calculation cost of the traditional CS is large. In this paper, semitensor product compressive sensing (STP-CS) is proposed, which reduces the size of the secret key to save the storage space by breaking through the dimension match restriction of the matrix multiplication and decreases the calculation amount to save the calculation resource. Simulation results show that STP-CS encryption can achieve better performances of saving storage and calculation resources compared with the traditional CS encryption.

With the development of intelligent networks such as the Internet of Things, network scales are becoming increasingly larger, and network environments increasingly complex, which brings a great challenge to network communication. The issues of energy-saving, transmission efficiency, and security were gradually highlighted. Compressed sensing (CS) helps to simultaneously solve those three problems in the communication of intelligent networks. In CS, fewer samples are required to reconstruct sparse or compressible signals, which breaks the restrict condition of a traditional Nyquist-Shannon sampling theorem. Here, we give an overview of recent CS studies, along the issues of sensing models, reconstruction algorithms, and their applications. First, we introduce several common sensing methods for CS, like sparse dictionary sensing, block-compressed sensing, and chaotic compressed sensing. We also present several state-of-the-art reconstruction algorithms of CS, including the convex optimization, greedy, and Bayesian algorithms. Lastly, we offer recommendation for broad CS applications, such as data compression, image processing, cryptography, and the reconstruction of complex networks. We discuss works related to CS technology and some CS essentials. © 2020 by the authors.
