A wireless sensor network (WSN) consists of spatially distributed autonomous sensors to co-operatively monitor physical or environmental conditions, such as temperature, sound, vibration, pressure, motion or pollutants. The development of wireless sensor networks was motivated by military applications such as battlefield surveillance. They are now used in many industrial and civilian application areas, including industrial process monitoring and control, machine health monitoring, environment and habitat monitoring, healthcare applications, home automation, and traffic control. This book gathers and presents topical research data from around the globe in the field of wireless sensor networks.
