We envision that in some wireless sensor network applications, such as environmental monitoring, assisted living, and industrial control, handheld devices will be used from time t...
In this paper, we introduce PANEL, a position-based aggregator node election protocol for wireless sensor networks. The novelty of PANEL with respect to other aggregator node elec...
