Wireless sensor network is a tremendous emerging technology provides communication services for environmental monitoring and target tracking for mass public and military. With increasing of this smart network popularity sensor network faced various challenges and threats. The inclusion of wireless sensor nodes also incurs different types of security threats in network. Mostly networks are using shared key approaches to make less communication overhead, but still network compromise with replay impersonation and compromise attacks. The existing proposed schemes are not fully addressed other network resources such as energy and speed, etc.  The intent of this paper is to provide a comprehensive security requirement, detail about security attacks in network and discuss the existing security schemes.

Researchers have been focused on the influences of flowing fluid on the corrosion of bare metals, but there is little emphasis on the degradation of metal-protective coating. Evaluating the metal-protective coating usually uses the Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) method. EIS is a technique used for evaluating coating permeability or barrier performance based on the electrical impedance of coating. This paper presents a new impedance-based wireless sensor network for metal-protective coating evaluation. This wireless sensor network consists of two parts: impedance-based wireless sensor nodes and a wireless data base that are equipped with a network analyzer (AD5933) and a RF transceiver (CC1111/CC1110). In the experiment, there are three coating panels immersed in flowing deionized water (DI water) and one coating panel immersed in stationary DI water. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed wireless sensor network is capable to evaluate the coating degrading.

This chapter presents an intelligent method of optimising the radiation beam of wireless sensor nodes in Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). Each node has the feature of a monopole antenna. The optimisation involves selection of nodes to be organised as close as possible to a uniform linear array (ULA) in order to minimise the position errors, which will improve the radiation beam reconfiguring performance. Instead of utilising random beamforming, which needs a large number of sensor nodes to interact with each other and form a narrow radiation beam, the developed optimisation algorithm is emphasized to only a selected number of sensor nodes which can construct a linear array. Thus, the method utilises radiation beam reconfiguration technique to intelligently establish a communication link in a WSN.

Wireless Sensor nodes are being employed in various applications like in traffic control, battlefield, and habitat monitoring, emergency rescue, aerospace systems, healthcare systems and in intruder tracking recently. Tracking techniques differ in almost every application of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), as WSN is itself application specific. The chapter aims to present the current state of art of the tracking techniques. It throws light on how mathematically target tracking is perceived and then explains tracking schemes and routing techniques based on tracking techniques. An insight of how to code localization techniques in matlab simulation tool is provided and analyzed. It further draws the attention of the readers to types of tracking scenarios. Some of the well established tracking techniques are also surveyed for the reader's benefit. The chapter presents with open research challenges that need to be addressed along with target tracking in wireless sensor networks.

The nodes deployment scheme based on the perceived probability model aiming at wireless sensor network nodes which are randomly deployed is designed. The scheme can be used to calculate the perceived probability in the area around wireless sensor network nodes and move the wireless sensor nodes to the low perceived probability area according to the current energy of the wireless sensor node. The simulation results show that this deployment scheme achieves the goal of the nodes reasonable distribution by improving the network coverage and reducing the nodes movement distance and energy consumption. </span>

The need for security in communications is in fact not new. This need has existed in military communications for thousands of years. In this paper, we focus on network protocols that provide security services. Wireless sensor network is an emerging technology that shows applications both for public as well as military purposes. Monitoring is one of the main applications. A large amount of redundant data is generated by sensor nodes. This paper compares all the protocols which are designed for security of wireless sensor network on the basis of security services and propose an improved protocol that reduces communication overhead by removing data redundancy from the network. By using the message sequence number we can check whether it is old message or new message. If the message is old then no need to send that message thereby reducing overhead. It also integrates security by data freshness in the protocol.


In part years wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have shown great improvement and also have become trusted areas in research. A wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is made up of many wireless sensor nodes that provides the source field and sink of a wireless network. The ability to sense the surrounding nodes, computing and connecting to other nodes wirelessly provide the wireless sensor network s(WSNs).the application of WSN is seen in many areas like military application, tracking, monitoring remote environment, surveillance, healthcare department and so on. Because of wide application the challenges for better developed technology and improvement have increased .this paper discuss some of the recent and future trends of Wireless sensor network.

Wireless sensor network (WSN) is a vital form of the underlying technology of the internet of things (IoT); WSN comprises several energy-constrained sensor nodes to monitor various physical parameters. Moreover, due to the energy constraint, load balancing plays a vital role considering the wireless sensor network as battery power. Although several clustering algorithms have been proposed for providing energy efficiency, there are chances of uneven load balancing and this causes the reduction in network lifetime as there exists inequality within the network. These scenarios occur due to the short lifetime of the cluster head. These cluster head (CH) are prime responsible for all the activity as it is also responsible for intra-cluster and inter-cluster communications. In this research work, a mechanism named lifetime centric load balancing mechanism (LCLBM) is developed that focuses on CH-selection, network design, and optimal CH distribution. Furthermore, under LCLBM, assistant cluster head (ACH) for balancing the load is developed. LCLBM is evaluated by considering the important metrics, such as energy consumption, communication overhead, number of failed nodes, and one-way delay. Further, evaluation is carried out by comparing with ES-Leach method, through the comparative analysis it is observed that the proposed model outperforms the existing model.
