Infrastructure for Homeland Security Environments
Wireless Sensor Networks helps readers discover the emerging field
of low-cost standards-based sensors that promise a high order of
spatial and temporal resolution and accuracy in an ever-increasing
universe of applications. It shares the latest advances in science
and engineering paving the way towards a large plethora of new
applications in such areas as infrastructure protection and
security, healthcare, energy, food safety, RFID, ZigBee, and
processing.
Unlike other books on wireless sensor networks that focus on
limited topics in the field, this book is a broad introduction that
covers all the major technology, standards, and application topics.
It contains everything readers need to know to enter this
burgeoning field, including current applications and promising
research and development; communication and networking protocols;
middleware architecture for wireless sensor networks; and security
and management.
The straightforward and engaging writing style of this book makes
even complex concepts and processes easy to follow and understand.
In addition, it offers several features that help readers grasp the
material and then apply their knowledge in designing their own
wireless sensor network systems:
*
Examples illustrate how concepts are applied to the development and
application of
*
wireless sensor networks
*
Detailed case studies set forth all the steps of design and
implementation needed to solve real-world problems
*
Chapter conclusions that serve as an excellent review by stressing
the chapter's key concepts
*
References in each chapter guide readers to in-depth discussions of
individual topics
This book is ideal for networking designers and engineers who
want to fully exploit this new technology and for government
employees who are concerned about homeland security. With its
examples, it is appropriate for use as a coursebook for upper-level
undergraduates and graduate students.
