In all areas of wireless sensors, target tracking technologies have been widely used, wireless sensors node can collaborate and monitor one or more mobile target, at the same time transmit perception data to the sink node, thus making process and decision making. This paper makes a systematic analysis on the node selection in wireless sensor networks for target tracking, and propose the corresponding node algorithm, this algorithm is proposed to optimize the lifetime of the network to provide a reliable guarantee. As the basis for setting the node survival function, enabling users to gradually increase the reliability of target tracking, so as to maximize the lifetime of network on node target tracking.
