Low-Power Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract

While some sensor networks can operate independently, e.g. by performing smart actuation based on measured sensor readings, in a typical use case sensor data is collected and utilized outside the WSN [16]. This necessitates data collection facilities and a connection between the sensor network and the rest of the world.
