The confluence of inexpensive wireless communication, computation, and sensing has created a new generation of smart devices. Using tens to thousands of these devices in self-organizing networks has created a new technology referred to as wireless sensor networks. This article gives an overview of the wireless sensor networks.

Current and future requirements of aerospace sensors and transducers demand the design and development of a new family of sensing devices, with emphasis on reduced weight, power consumption, and physical size. This new generation of sensors and transducers will possess a certain degree of intelligence in order to provide the end user with critical data

Lifetime in Wireless Sensor Networks
2009 International Conference on Complex, Intelligent and Software Intensive Systems, 2009The following paper deals with criterion used to measure communication protocol efficiency in Wireless Sensor Networks. As energy is a crucial characteristic of those networks, it is necessary to pay attention both to the energy consumption and to the distribution of energy consumption, when using communication protocols, so as to increase the lifetime

Hybrid wireless sensor network
SPIE Proceedings, 2004Wireless networks allow monitoring systems to be made non-invasive. This is required when solving the problem of monitoring cultural heritage and is also very convenient on other civil structures such as bridges and buildings. This paper examines a viable architecture for a wireless sensor network and shows the results of some tests carried out on a ...

Wireless Sensor Networks In Geophysics
21st EEGS Symposium on the Application of Geophysics to Engineering and Environmental Problems, 2008A significant expense in geophysics is physically collecting data – especially data sets involving multiple field deployments. Limited site access due to hazards, weather, legal issues, etc. may also limit data collection. Consequently, many datasets have too few measurement types, too little spatial coverage, and too little temporal coverage which ...

Wireless Sensors and Sensors Network
2013A sensor is a device that measures a physical quantity and usually converts it into an electrical signal which can be read by an observer or by an instrument. A sensor generates an electrical signal related to a physical, biological or chemical parameter.

Adaptability in wireless sensor networks
2008 15th IEEE International Conference on Electronics, Circuits and Systems, 2008Adaptability is a key strategy in the design of effective wireless sensor networks. Communication schemes need to adapt to dynamic topologies and fluctuating traffic rates. Applications have to alter their behavior to respond to mutated necessities or to cope with environmental changes.
