In wireless sensor network (WSN) the accuracy of data is important to maintain the networks’ performance. Therefore detecting nodes which either provide faulty readings or do not provide any information is an essential issue in sensor network management. As a whole the solution is to detect nodes with data and function faults, this paper proposes a novel method to detect nodes with both types of faults without assuming a particular sensing model. The performance of proposed fault model is more accurate and requires less communication compared to the existing methods.
