Detection of node failure in Wireless Sensor Networks

Identifying faulty nodes in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is important for proper functioning of WSN. This paper presents low-cost agent-based fault detection approaches which work independently without creating any hindrance for actual data packet routing in WSNs.
