Download or read book Wireless Sensor and Actuator Networks written by Roberto Verdone and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2010-07-27 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When choosing the technology options to develop a wireless sensor network (WSN), it is vital that their performance levels can be assessed for the type of application intended. This book describes the different technology options – MAC protocols, routing protocols, localisation and data fusion techniques – and provides the means to numerically measure their performance, whether by simulation, mathematical models or experimental test beds. Case studies, based on the authors’ direct experience of implementing wireless sensor networks, describe the design methodology and the type of measurements used, together with samples of the performance measurements attained. Wireless Sensor and Actuator Networks will enable you to answer vital questions such as: How long will my network remain alive given the amount of sensing required of it? For how long should I set the sleeping state of my motes? How many sensors should I distribute to meet the expected requirements of the application? What type of throughput should I expect as a function of the number of nodes deployed and the radio interface chosen (whether it be Bluetooth or Zigbee)? How is the Packet Error Rate of my Zigbee motes affected by the selection of adjacent frequency sub bands in the ISM 2.4GHz band? How is the localisation precision dependant on the number of nodes deployed in a corridor? Communications and signal processing engineers, researchers and graduate students working in wireless sensor networks will find this book an invaluable practical guide to this important technology.

Book excerpt: This thesis tackles Performability issues in Wireless sensors networks. Performability is a mission-specific measure of system effectiveness that seeks to combine the traditional reliability and performance measures of a system. Wireless Sensor networks consist of a huge number of small sensor nodes, which communicate wirelessly. These sensor nodes can be spread out in hard accessible areas by what new applications fields can be pointed out [13]. This thesis aims to provide wireless communication architecture for Petroleum installations, such as off shore platforms and on shore processing units, which are characterized by high density of temperature and pressure sensors [24]. There are many challenges related to this work, such as time synchronization, radio resource management and routing. In this thesis we design a routing protocol for wireless sensors networks, namely Smart Routing in Wireless Sensors Networks (SR-WSN). We utilize NS2 networks simulation tool to evaluate the performability of the SR-WSN. In particular, these simulations study the impact of nodes failure on the total delay and power consumption. Finally, we build up a Markovian Reward Model (MRM) to compare the performability between SR-WSN and a typical broadcast system. The found results prove that our system outperforms broadcast system.

Download or read book Wireless Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks written by Jing (Selina) He and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2013-08-06 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been employed across a wide range of applications, there are very few books that emphasize the algorithm description, performance analysis, and applications of network management techniques in WSNs. Filling this need, Wireless Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks: Management, Performance, and Applications summarizes not only traditional and classical network management techniques, but also state-of-the-art techniques in this area. The articles presented are expository, but scholarly in nature, including the appropriate history background, a review of current thinking on the topic, and a discussion of unsolved problems. The book is organized into three sections. Section I introduces the basic concepts of WSNs and their applications, followed by the summarization of the network management techniques used in WSNs. Section II begins by examining virtual backbone-based network management techniques. It points out some of the drawbacks in classical and existing methods and proposes several new network management techniques for WSNs that can address the shortcomings of existing methods. Each chapter in this section examines a new network management technique and includes an introduction, literature review, network model, algorithm description, theoretical analysis, and conclusion. Section III applies proposed new techniques to some important applications in WSNs including routing, data collection, data aggregation, and query processing. It also conducts simulations to verify the performance of the proposed techniques. Each chapter in this section examines a particular application using the following structure: brief application overview, application design and implementation, performance analysis, simulation settings, and comments for different test cases/scenario configurations.
