Introduction to Wireless Sensor Networks

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) enjoy great benefits due to their low-cost, small-scale factor, smart sensor nodes. Not only can they be employed in cumbersome and dangerous areas of interest, for monitoring or controlling the region, but they can also be deployed to automate mundane tasks. Early sensory units were expensive and lacked the computational and communicational capabilities of current smart sensor nodes, which can now sense, process, store, and forward data, all being powered by a battery.
