4. Introduction
Combo of sensors to monitor physical
conditions
Recorded data transfer central location
Reliability of wireless connectivity and
sequence of devices
Measure of physical condition like wind,
temperature etc.
7. Benefits of Wireless
Sensor Network
nodes can be accessed through
centralized montoring system
Removal and Addition of sensor easier
Low maintenance cost than wireless
sensor network
Configured and reconfigured in various
topologies like ring, star etc
8. Drawbacks of
Wireless
Sensor
Network
• can not be used for high speed
communication
• expensive to build such network
• In star topology based WSN,
failure of central node leads to
whole network shutdown
• Due to wireless in nature, it is
prone to hacking by hackers
• Challenges like energy efficiency, low
bandwidth, low range of sensors etc.
Wireless sensor networks consists of protocols and algorithms with self-organizing capabilities.
These sensors work with each other to sense some physical phenomenon and then the information gathered is processed to get relevant results.
