A Survey On Research Issues in Wireless Sensor Networks

Wireless Sensor Networks make a tremendous growth and becomes an emerging research area in wireless and distributed networks. Wireless sensor network (WSN) is comprised of huge number of small and cheap devices recognized as sensor nodes. The sensor nodes are capable of sensing, actuating, and controlling the collected information. The sensor nodes communicate together by many wireless strategies and these communication strategies are administered by routing protocols. Performance of sensor networks largely depends on the some factors. Keeping this in mind, we have carried out extensive survey on issues in wireless sensor networks. Finally, this paper summarized the research issues and pointed out some future directions.
