- Recently, several MAC protocols using directional antennas, typically referred to as directional MAC protocols, have been proposed for wireless ad hoc networks. However, the MAC ...
Tiny, low-cost sensor devices are expected to be failure-prone and hence in many realistic deployment scenarios for sensor networks these nodes are deployed in higher than necessa...
Abstractā With the rapid deployment of wireless sensor networks, there are several new sensing applications with speciļ¬c requirements. Speciļ¬cally, target tracking applicatio...
ā Wireless sensor networks offer the potential to span and monitor large geographical areas inexpensively. Sensor network databases like TinyDB [1] are the dominant architectures...
