About this title

Synopsis

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. The state-of-the-art protocol for WSN protocol stack is explored for transport, routing, data link and physical layers. Moreover, the open research issues are discussed for each of the protocol layers. Furthermore, the synchronization and localization problems in WSNs are investigated along with the existing solutions and open research issues. Finally, the existing evaluation approaches for WSNs including physical testbeds and software simulation environments are overviewed.

Review

"It is intended for advanced students but also would be useful for researchers, system and chip designers, and other professionals in related fields." (Booknews, 1 February 2011)

"The book is written in an accessible, textbook style, and includes problems and solutions to assist learning." (Dark Fiber, 8 February 2011)
