  1. 11. Performance Study of ZigBee-based Green House Monitoring System

    University essay from Mittuniversitetet/Avdelningen för informations- och kommunikationssystem

    Author : Shah Nawaz; [2015]
    Keywords : Wireless Sensor Network; Multi-hope Wireless Network; ZigBee Wireless Sensor Network; Medium Access Control; Optimized Network Engineering Tool;

    Abstract : Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is an emerging multi-hop wireless network technology, and the greenhouse network monitoring system is one of the key applications of WSNs in which various parameters such as temperature, humidity, pressure and power can be monitored. Here, we aim to study the performance of a simulation-based greenhouse monitoring system. READ MORE

  3. 13. Media Access Control for Wireless Sensor and Actuator Networks

    University essay from Kommunikationssystem; Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Muaz Un Nabi; [2012]
    Keywords : NS-2; WSN; IWLAN; DCF; PCF;

    Abstract : In a wireless network, the medium is a shared resource. The nodes in the network negotiate access of the shared resource using the Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol. The design of a MAC protocol for a sensor node is not the same as that for a wireless transceiver. READ MORE

  4. 14. Scalable Data Collection for Mobile Wireless Sensor Networks

    University essay from KTH/Kommunikationsnät

    Author : Navid Hassanzadeh; [2012]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In the near future WSNs (wireless sensor networks) which consist of tiny wireless embedded systems will be an inseparable part of our daily lives. Data collection, collecting data from a large number of sources to one or more base stations, is a typical application for WSNs. READ MORE

  5. 15. Network Coding with Limited Overhearing in Wireless Sensor Networks
