Book Description
The current world of technology faces massive advancements that influence different sectors such as transport, health care system, and education, amongst others. The telecommunication and information industry has become significant over time and has experienced considerable development. This trend is likely to extend into the future, both in terms of hardware and software. The industry plans to make modern advancements in the next five years to change their current modes of operation. Some of the significant changes that are forecast for the industry include technological advances such as 5G, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), IoT, wireless sensor networks, and cross-industry alliances. 5G mobile connectivity is expected to bring advanced technical improvements helping employment as well as growth in GDP. In the fusion of these technologies, the potential of IoT and Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) would be witnessed through various applications such as connected consumer, home monitoring system, predictive maintenance, factory monitoring, and so on. A Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a term used for a network of devices that can gather information and then communicate it through any wireless link. The data collected is then transferred using different nodes and multiple gateways. With the evolution of technology, some new criteria have been introduced to check and balance the environmental conditions for reliable and fast response operations for a quick response and service under different scenarios and situations. There has been an increased use of smart wireless sensor objects in the current world by various organizations. The growth of the Internet of Things (IoT), industrial IoT, and wireless sensor networks have shaped different technologies and enables faster, reliable, and sufficient production of goods and services. Although there are limitations and challenges such as storage capacity, processing power, communication range, and battery life, WSN significantly affects IoT technology development. Learning about the standards and specifications of WSNs is vital to understanding their general functionality and how they are in close interaction with the Internet of Things, with many massive billions of device connectivity. Future developments should focus on building a self-adaptive spectrum management middleware for the wireless sensor networks. The telecom industry will continue to face regulatory challenges it faces currently. Various new regulations are likely to come up soon, and these will also have financial implications for the companies. The need to ensure consumer privacy is a critical issue that will be of prime concern to the telecoms in the next few years. Various aspects, such as the standards and the architectures, need to be considered to ensure the security and operational consistency of these wireless sensor networks; therefore, industry players should keep up with the changing trends and adapt accordingly.In this book there are twelve chapters which cover wireless networking sensors evolution and technologies advancement. We are very pleased that the technology, academic, and industry communities are discussing this important and fast growing industry and we are certain that the content of this book will shed some light on this subject.

ISBN: 953307261X
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 434
Book Description
The recent development of communication and sensor technology results in the growth of a new attractive and challenging area - wireless sensor networks (WSNs). A wireless sensor network which consists of a large number of sensor nodes is deployed in environmental fields to serve various applications. Facilitated with the ability of wireless communication and intelligent computation, these nodes become smart sensors which do not only perceive ambient physical parameters but also be able to process information, cooperate with each other and self-organize into the network. These new features assist the sensor nodes as well as the network to operate more efficiently in terms of both data acquisition and energy consumption. Special purposes of the applications require design and operation of WSNs different from conventional networks such as the internet. The network design must take into account of the objectives of specific applications. The nature of deployed environment must be considered. The limited of sensor nodes resources such as memory, computational ability, communication bandwidth and energy source are the challenges in network design. A smart wireless sensor network must be able to deal with these constraints as well as to guarantee the connectivity, coverage, reliability and security of network's operation for a maximized lifetime. This book discusses various aspects of designing such smart wireless sensor networks. Main topics includes: design methodologies, network protocols and algorithms, quality of service management, coverage optimization, time synchronization and security techniques for sensor networks.
