Sensor devices provide sophisticated services in collecting data in various applications, some of which are privacy sensitive; others are ordinary. This chapter emphasizes the necessity and some mechanisms of privacy preserving data gathering techniques in wireless sensor network communication. It also introduces a new solution for privacy preserving data gathering in wireless sensor networks. By using perturbation technique in a semi-trusted server model, this new solution is capable of reducing a significant amount of computation in data collection process. In this technique, data of a sensor is perturbed into two components which are unified into two semi-trusted servers. Servers are assumed not to collude each other. Neither of them have possession of any individual data. Therefore, they cannot discover individual data. There are many real life applications in which the proposed model can be applied. Moreover, this chapter also shows a technique to collect grouped data from distributed sources keeping the privacy preserved. Security proofs show that any of the servers or any individual sensor neither can discover any individual data nor can associate any data to an individual sensor. Thus, the privacy of individual data is preserved.

: Security is one of the important concern in both types of the network. The network may be wired or wireless. In case of wireless network security provisioning is more difficult in comparison to wired network. Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is also a type of wireless network. And due to resource constraints WSN is vulnerable against malware attacks. Initially, the malware (virus, worm, malicious code, etc.) targets a single node of WSN for attack. When a node of WSN gets infected then automatically start to spread in the network. If nodes are strongly correlated the malware spreads quickly in the network. On the other hand, if nodes are weakly correlated the speed of malware spread is slow. A mathematical model is proposed for the study of malware propagation dynamics in WSN with combination of spatial correlation and epidemic theory. This model is based on epidemic theory with spatial correlation. The proposed model is Susceptible-Exposed-Infectious-Recover-Dead (SEIRD) with spatial correlation. We deduced the expression of basic reproduction number. It helps in the study of malware propagation dynamics in WSN. The stability analysis of the network has been investigated through proposed model. This model also helps in reduction of redundant information and saving of sensor nodes’ energy in WSN. The theoretical investigation verified by simulation results. A spatial correlation based epidemic model has been formulated for the study of dynamic behaviour of malware attacks in WSN.

In the wireless sensor network (WSN), wireless communication is said to be the dominant power-consuming operation and it is a challenging one. Virtual Multiple-Input–Multiple-Output (V-MIMO) technology is considered to be the energy-saving method in the WSN. In this paper, a novel multihop virtual MIMO communication protocol is designed in the WSN via cross-layer design to enhance the energy efficiency, reliability, and end-to-end (ETE) and Quality of Service (QoS) provisioning. On the basis of the proposed protocol, the optimal set of parameters concerning the transmission and the overall consumed energy by each of the packets is found. Furthermore, the modeling of ETE latency and throughput of the protocol takes place with respect to the bit-error-rate (BER). A novel hybrid optimization algorithm referred as Flight Straight Moth Updated Particle Swarm Optimization (FS-MUP) is introduced to find the optimal BER that meets the QoS, ETE requirements of each link with lower power consumption. Finally, the performance of the proposed model is evaluated over the extant models in terms of Energy Consumption and BER as well.

Ethnic sports are various ethnic sports that have gradually evolved into various popular sports in the long-term life experience, according to different living habits and residential areas, in the hunting activities of similar sports in the past. Based on the use of wireless sensor networks, this paper monitors the traditional national sports activities, provides real-time feedback on the actual human body conditions in different sports, and finds out the pros and cons of traditional sports and makes improvements. The object proposes a national automated monitoring test, which uses several small sensors in the wireless sensor network to transmit information to monitor many real conditions in the human body during multisport, so as to find out that the national sports exercise is in real life. Experimental results show that in recent years, all ethnic groups have attached great importance to ethnic sports. The 11th Ethnic Minority Games held in 2019 will have 18 competitions, 17 individual events, 131 small events, and 55 ethnic minorities that participated in the joint participation of more than 7000 athletes participating in traditional sports of all nationalities and are the best inheritance and development of national sports.

Air pollution is an important environmental issue that has a direct effect on human health and ecological balance. Factories, power plants, vehicles, windblown dust and wildfires are some of the contributors of to pollution. Reasonable simulation tools exist for evaluating large scale sensor networks, ; however, they fail to capture significant details of node operation or practical aspects of wireless communication. Real life testbeds, capture the realism and bring out important aspects for further research. In this paper, we present an implementation of a wireless sensor network testbed for automatic and real-time monitoring of environmental pollution for the protection of public spaces. The paper describes the physical setup, the sensor node hardware and software architecture for “anytime, anywhere” monitoring and management of pollution data through a single, Web-based graphical user interface. The paper presents practical issues in the integration of sensors, actual power consumption rates and develops a practical hierarchical routing methodology.
