This book presents an in-depth study on the recent advances in
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). The authors describe the existing
WSN applications and discuss the research efforts being undertaken
in this field. Theoretical analysis and factors influencing
protocol design are also highlighted. The authors explore
state-of-the-art protocols for WSN protocol stack in transport,
routing, data link, and physical layers. Moreover, the
synchronization and localization problems in WSNs are investigated
along with existing solutions. Furthermore, cross-layer solutions
are described. Finally, developing areas of WSNs including
sensor-actor networks, multimedia sensor networks, and WSN
applications in underwater and underground environments are
explored. The book is written in an accessible, textbook style, and
includes problems and solutions to assist learning.
Key Features: The ultimate guide to recent advances and research
into WSNs Discusses the most important problems and issues that
arise when programming and designing WSN systems Shows why the
unique features of WSNs - self-organization, cooperation,
correlation -- will enable new applications that will provide the
end user with intelligence and a better understanding of the
environment Provides an overview of the existing evaluation
approaches for WSNs including physical testbeds and software
simulation environments Includes examples and learning exercises
with a solutions manual; supplemented by an accompanying website
containing PPT-slides.
"Wireless Sensor Networks" is an essential textbook for advanced
students on courses in wireless communications, networking and
computer science. It will also be of interest to researchers,
system and chip designers, network planners, technical mangers and
other professionals in these fields.
