Wireless Sensor Networks and Applications PDF
Edited by Yingshu Li, My T. Thai
Part of the Signals and Communication Technology series
Description
Wireless sensor networks are being employed in a variety applications ra- ing from medical to military, and from home to industry.
The principle aim of this book is to provide a reference tool for the increasing number of scientists who depend upon sensor networks in some way.
The book is organized into several sections, each including chapters exploring a speci?c topic.
Wireless sensor networks are attracting great attention and there are many research topics yet to be studied.
In this book, the topics covered include n- work design and modelling, network management, data management, security and applications.
The articles presented in the book are expository, but of a scholarly nature, including the appropriate history background, a review of the state-of-the-art thinking relative to the topic, as well as a discussion of unsolved problems that are of special interest.
The target readers of this book include the researchers in computer s- ence, computer engineering, and applied mathematics, as well as students in these subjects.
Specialists as well as general readers will ?nd the articles st- ulating and helpful.
Book Organization The book is organized into ?ve sections.
Section I introduces the design and modelling of sensor networks.
Chapter 1, by Iyer, Kulkarni, Mhatre, and Rosenberg, presents a taxonomy of wireless sensor networks, based on their application level objectives, tra-c characteristics and data delivery requi- ments.
Popa and Lewis in Chapter 2 describe some algorithms for systematic exploration of unknown environments using a mobile wireless sensor network.
