Review on Wireless Sensor Networks: Total Technology Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow

The wireless sensor networks are becoming very popular since a decade back. Due to the eminent applications of this technology, almost every aspect of life is using sensors in them. So the evolution of networking in this field was a collaborative initiative for the popularity of these emerging fields. The initial step towards the sensor technology was taken only for the purpose of the use of this in wars, but various advancements in the field of electronics has made its usability almost in every field today and the efforts are still going on. The main focus of this review paper is on the analysis of what this technology was, what it is today and what it will be after few years so that it can give a clear view of past, present and future perspectives and applications of this technology.
