Heterogeneous wireless sensor network (heterogeneous WSN) consists of sensor nodes with different ability, such as different computing power and sensing range. Compared with homoge...
Key pre-distribution techniques for security provision of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have attracted significant interests recently. In these schemes, a relatively small numbe...
Abstract— This paper proposes a simple yet efficient localization algorithm for GPS-free sensor nodes in wireless sensor networks (WSN). Our approach is hybrid in the sense that...
Sensor deployment is a critical issue, as it affects the cost and detection capabilities of a wireless sensor network. Although many previous efforts have addressed this issue, mo...
Energy is a central concern in the deployment of wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we investigate the energy cost of cryptographic protocols, both from a communication and ...
