Disaster management is one of the most relevant application fields of wireless sensor networks. In this application, the role of the sensor network usually consists of obtaining a representation or a model of a physical phenomenon spreading through the affected area. In this work we focus on forest firefighting operations, proposing three fully distributed ways for approximating the actual shape of the fire. In the simplest approach, a circular burnt area is assumed around each node that has detected the fire and the union of these circles gives the overall fire’s shape. However, as this approach makes an intensive use of the wireless sensor network resources, we have proposed to incorporate two in-network aggregation techniques, which do not require considering the complete set of fire detections. The first technique models the fire by means of a complex shape composed of multiple convex hulls representing different burning areas, while the second technique uses a set of arbitrary polygons. Performance evaluation of realistic fire models on computer simulations reveals that the method based on arbitrary polygons obtains an improvement of 20% in terms of accuracy of the fire shape approximation, reducing the overhead in-network resources to 10% in the best case.

With the development of Internet of things technology, the combination of Internet of things technology and sports competition parameter collection technology, so as to carry out rapid and accurate retrieval and positioning of technology and tactics, has innovation in the current research field. In the high-level table tennis competition, the use of technology and tactics is closely related to the gain and loss of points. At present, the traditional table tennis video mining algorithm has some problems such as low efficiency and poor performance of optimization classification. Based on this, this article introduces the big data platform of the wireless sensor networks to construct the table tennis match database, realizing the real-time updating of table tennis match parameters and the call of historical data at any time. Then establishing a data mining model to realize the data and dynamic analysis of table tennis matches. Finally, based on this strategic analysis system, the data collected from two table tennis competitions are simulated, and the tactical recommendation of theoretical analysis is obtained, which provides a theoretical basis for the digitization of table tennis sports.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are vulnerable to a variety of malicious attacks, especially the packet dropping attack, making security an important research field. Since prevention based techniques are less helpful for guarding against inside attacks, intrusion detection (ID) techniques are indispensable to provide advanced protection. This paper proposes an innovative cellular ID framework for packet dropping attack, which takes the deployment of passive listening nodes into consideration. Performance evaluation made in VisualSense demonstrates its high detection accuracy.

Because of their low cost and adaptability, wireless sensor networks are widely used in civil, military, and commercial fields and other fields. However, since the sensor node in the calculation of the capacity, battery capacity, and storage capacity are restricted by the limitations and inherent characteristics of the sensor networks, compared to traditional networks, which makes wireless sensor networks face more security threats. This paper summarized research progress of sensor network security issues as three aspects, key management, authentication, and secure routing, analyzed and commented on these results advantages and disadvantages and pointed out the future direction of the hot research field.

As part of the IoT-based application, underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSN), which are typically self-organized heterogeneous wireless network, are one of the research hot-spots using various sensors in marine exploration and water environment monitoring application fields, recently. Due to the serious attenuation of radio in water, acoustic or hybrid communication is a usual way for transmitting information among nodes, which dissipates much more energy to prevent the network failure and guarantee the quality of service (QoS). To address this issue, a topology control with energy balance, namely TCEB, is proposed for UWSN to overcome time-delay and other interference, as well as make the entire network load balance. With the given underwater network model and its specialized energy consumption model, we introduce the non-cooperative-game-based scheme to select the nodes with better performance as the cluster-heads. Afterwards, the intra-cluster and inter-cluster topology construction are, respectively, to form the effective communication links of the intra-cluster and inter-cluster, which aim to build energy-efficient topology to reduce energy consumption. With the demonstration of the simulation, the results show the proposed TCEB has better performance on energy-efficiency and throughput than three other representative algorithms in complex underwater environments.

Energy consumption is an open issue in research field of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH) protocol is the most additional routing protocol in WSNs. In LEACH, Cluster Head (CH) is selected randomly, not considering any parameter such as node energy, distance, which causes shortening its lifetime while energy consumption is unbalanced in WSNs. In this paper, it proposes a new LEACH-based protocol, energy consumption balance LEACH protocol. Firstly, all nodes are grouped based on their locations, and a CH is elected in every group, which ensures CHs even distribution in the network area. And an important factor selecting CHs, node energy is considered, which further energy consumption in WSNs. The results of simulation show that ECB-LEACH can increase energy efficiency and prolong the network lifetime.

Wireless network led to the development of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). A Wireless sensor network is a set of connected devices, sensors, and electronic components that can transmit the information collected from an observed field to the relevant node through wireless links. WSN has advanced many application fields. It can change any kind of technology that can modify the future lifestyle. WSNs are composed of tiny wireless computers that can sense the situation of atmosphere, process the sensor data, make a decision, and spread data to the environmental stimuli. Sensor-based technology has created several opportunities in the healthcare system, revolutionizing it in many aspects. This chapter explains in detail wireless sensor networks, their protocol, and performance metrics. The impact and role of the Biosensor in a wireless sensor network and healthcare systems are depicted. The integration of the computer engineering program into the WSNs is addressed.

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) are a very promising research field since they are applicable in many different areas. Current proposals for WSN system development are mainly focused on implementation issues and rarely use a Software Engineering methodology to support their development life cycle. The Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) approach can be used as a solution to this by allowing designers to model their systems at different abstraction levels, providing them with automatic model transformations to incrementally refine abstract models into more concrete ones. In this vein, this paper presents an MDE approach to WSN application development. Three levels of abstraction have been defined which allow designers to build: (1) domain-specific models, (2) component-based architecture descriptions, and (3) platform-specific models. Automatic model transformations between these three abstraction levels have been designed and, in order to demonstrate the viability of the proposal, a real WSN application has been developed using the implemented tools.

AbstractBecause of the wide variety of possible application fields and the spread of smart devices, the research of wireless sensor networks has become an increasingly important area in the last decade. During the design of these networks, several important aspects have to be considered, for example the lifetime of the network, expected battery usage, or robustness of the installed system. In this paper a simulation environment is introduced that enables the testing of different information spreading methods on the network and provides suggestions for gateway placements with different objectives.
