- Security is a big challenge when wireless sensor networks are deployed in a hostile environment. Due to the computational and storage overheads, traditional asymmetric-key based ...
— Sensing coverage is an important issue for sensor networks, since it is viewed as one of the critical measures of performance offered by a sensor network. The design of a routi...
Abstract. A MAC protocol specifies how nodes in a sensor network access a shared communication channel. Desired properties of such MAC protocol are: it should be distributed and c...

Abstract. The literature on cross-layer protocols, protocol improvements, and design methodologies for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is reviewed and a taxonomy is proposed. The c...
Routing protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) face three major performance challenges. The first one is an efficient use of bandwidth that minimizes the transfer delay of p...
