Abstract-- Lifetime maximization is an important optimization problem specific to Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) since they operate with limited energy resources which are therefo...
This paper describes a supercapacitor-operated, solar-powered wireless sensor node called Everlast. Unlike traditional wireless sensors that store energy in batteries, Everlast’...
—The modeling of energy components in Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) simulation is important for obtaining realistic lifetime predictions and ensuring the faithful operation of en...
