Book Description
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) consist of tiny sensors capable of sensing, computing, and communicating. Due to advances in semiconductors, networking, and material science technologies, it is now possible to deploy large-scale WSNs. The advancement in these technologies has not only decreased the deployment and maintenance costs of networks but has also increased the life of networks and made them more rugged. As WSNs become more reliable with lower maintenance costs, they are being deployed and used across various sectors for multiple applications. This book discusses the applications, challenges, and design and deployment techniques of WSNs.

Book Description
The twentieth century ended with the vision of smart dust: a network of wirelessly connected devices whose size would match that of a dust particle, each one a se- containedpackageequippedwithsensing,computation,communication,andpower. Smart dust held the promise to bridge the physical and digital worlds in the most unobtrusive manner, blending together realms that were previously considered well separated. Applications involved scattering hundreds, or even thousands, of smart dust devices to monitor various environmental quantities in scenarios ranging from habitat monitoring to disaster management. The devices were envisioned to se- organize to accomplish their task in the most ef?cient way. As such, smart dust would become a powerful tool, assisting the daily activities of scientists and en- neers in a wide range of disparate disciplines. Wireless sensor networks (WSNs), as we know them today, are the most no- worthy attempt at implementing the smart dust vision. In the last decade, this ?eld has seen a fast-growing investment from both academia and industry. Signi?cant ?nancial resources and manpower have gone into making the smart dust vision a reality through WSNs. Yet, we still cannot claim complete success. At present, only specialist computerscientists or computerengineershave the necessary background to walk the road from conception to a ?nal, deployed, and running WSN system.

Book Description
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) overcome the difficulties of other monitoring systems because they require no human attendance on site, provide real time interaction with events, and maintain efficient cost and power operations. However, further efficiencies are required especially in the case of Outdoor Environment Monitoring (OEM) applications due to their harsh operational conditions, huge targeted areas, limited energy budgets, and required three-dimensional (3-D) setups. A fundamental issue in defeating these practical challenges is the deployment planning of the WSNs. The deployment plan is a key factor of many intrinsic properties of OEM networks, summarized in connectivity, lifetime, fault-tolerance, and cost-effectiveness. Wireless Sensor Networks: Deployment Strategies for Outdoor Monitoring investigates the problem of WSN deployments that address these properties in order to overcome the unique challenges and circumstances in OEM applications. Wireless Sensor Networks: Deployment Strategies for Outdoor Monitoring aims primarily at optimizing the WSN deployment in OEM applications by exploiting static/mobile Relay Nodes (RN) in grid-based deployments. It studies the optimization problem when Sensor Nodes (SN) positions are known in advance and static RN are utilized. Afterward, it examines a more complicated scenario where SN positions are anonymous and a hybrid of static and mobile relay nodes are in use. Accordingly, it presents novel deployment schemes (strategies) to place the set of RN/SN on any grid model in these scenarios. Wireless Sensor Networks: Deployment Strategies for Outdoor Monitoring highlights relevant background and related work in the literature. Then, it introduces a novel 3-D deployment strategy, called Optimized 3-D Grid deployment with Lifetime Constraint (O3DwLC), for relay nodes in environmental applications. After the introduction, it proposes two Optimized Relay Placement (ORP) strategies with the objective of federating disjoint WSN sectors with the maximum connectivity under a cost constraint on the total number of RNs to be deployed. It then proposes a 3-D grid-based deployment for relay nodes in which the relays are efficiently placed on grid vertices, and elaborates further on this strategy where the hexagonal virtual grid is assumed instead of the square one. Finally, it proposes a 3-D grid-based deployment for heterogeneous WSN, consisting of SN, RN, and MRN. Wireless Sensor Networks: Deployment Strategies for Outdoor Monitoring provides guidelines for device deployment of typical heterogeneous WSN in OEM applications. Book jacket.
