Kurzbeschreibung
This book presents an in-depth study on recent advances and research in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Existing WSN applications are described, followed by discussing the ongoing research efforts on some WSNs applications that show the usefulness of sensor networks. Theoretical analysis and factors influencing protocol design are highlighted, while the state-of-the-art protocol for WSN protocol stack is explored for transport, routing, data link, and physical layers. The bool also reviews the existing evaluation approaches for WSNs including physical testbeds and software simulation environments.
