The key application scenario of wireless sensor networks is data gathering: sensor nodes transmit data, possibly in a multi-hop fashion, to an information sink. The performance of...
Scalability and extended lifetime are two critical design goals of any large scale wireless sensor network. A two-tiered network model has been proposed recently for this purpose....
: The IEEE 802.15.4 and Zigbee are protocols aimed at low-duty and low-power wireless sensor networks. Continuously monitoring applications such as applications of structural healt...
— In contrast to the traditional wireless sensor network (WSN) applications that perform only data collection and aggregation, new generation of information processing applicatio...
In this paper we investigate the problem of uneven energy consumptions in a large class of many-to-one sensor networks. In a many-to-one sensor network, all sensor nodes generate ...
