Abstract
An apparatus and method of determining a number of data transmissions in a sensor network are provided. More particularly, an apparatus for determining a number of data transmissions preferably includes an interest zone detector for detecting an interest zone based on a user query, a zone determination unit for determining whether the interest zone is overlapped with a sensing zone, a zone calculator for calculating an overlap amount when the interest zone is overlapped with the sensing zone, and a transmission number determination unit for determining a number of data transmissions according to the overlap amount.
