Introduction to Wireless Sensor Networks

Introduction
Wireless Sensor Networks are networks consisting of tiny
motes equipped with sensors which are distributed in an ad
hoc manner. OR
Wireless Sensor Networks is a collection of embedded
sensor devices with networking capabilities

Introduction
These sensors work with each other to
sense some physical phenomenon and then
the information gathered is processed to
get relevant results.
Wireless sensor networks consists of
protocols and algorithms with self-
organizing capabilities.

Example of WSN
Characteristics and challenges
Deeply distributed architecture : localized
coordination to reach entire system goals, no
infrastructure with no central control support
Autonomous operation : self-organization, self-
configuration
TCP/IP is open, widely implemented, supports
multiple physical network, relatively efficient
and light weight, but requires manual
intervention to configure and to use.
Energy conservation: physical, MAC
Scalability: scale with node density, number and
kinds of networks

Challenges in sensor networks
Energy constraint
Unreliable communication
Unreliable sensors
Ad hoc deployment
Large scale networks
Limited computation power
Distributed execution
:Nodes are battery powered
:Radio broadcast, limited
bandwidth, bursty traffic
:False positives
:Pre-configuration inapplicable
:Algorithms should scale well
:Centralized algorithms
inapplicable
:Difficult to debug & get it right
Node Architecture
Wireless sensor nodes are the essential
building blocks in a wireless sensor
network
The node consists of sensing, processing,
communication, and power subsystems

TinyOS
most popular operating system for WSN
developed by UC Berkeley
features a component-based architecture
software is written in modular pieces called
components
Each component denotes the interfaces that it
provides
An interface declares a set of functions called
commands that the interface provider
implements and another set of functions called
events that the interface user should be ready
to handle
Performance Metrics
Network lifetime: It is measure of energy efficiency, as
sensor nodes are battery operated, WSNs protocols must be
energy efficient to maximize system lifetime.
Energy consumption. : It is the sum of used energy by all
WSN nodes.
Latency: It is the end-to-end delay that implies the average
time between sending a packet from the source, and the time
for successfully receiving the message at the destination.
Accuracy : It is the freedom from mistake or error,
correctness, conformity to truth, exactness
Fault-tolerance : Sensors may fail due to surrounding
physical conditions or when their energy runs out.

Performance Metrics
Scalability : As a prime factor, it is WSN
adaptability to increased workload
Network throughput : It is a common metric
for all networks. The end-to-end throughput
measures the number of packets per second
received at the destination.

Types of WSN
1.6.1 Terrestrial WSNs
These types of networks consist of hundreds or
thousands of wireless sensor nodes. These nodes
can be deployed in an unstructured or a structured
manner. The nodes are distributed randomly in an
unstructured mode, but they are kept within the
target area.
As these are the ‘terrestrial’ sensor networks
therefore they are above ground and solar cells can
be used to power up these networks. The energy
can be conserved by minimizing delays and by
using operations of low duty cycles etc.

5. Mobile WSNs
The mobile wireless sensor networks are
much more versatile than the static
sensor networks. The advantages of
MWSN over the static wireless sensor
networks include better and improved
coverage, better energy efficiency,
superior channel capacity, and so on.

Comparison with Ad Hoc
Wireless Networks
The number of nodes in sensor network can be
several orders of magnitude large than the
number of nodes in an ad hoc network.
Sensor nodes are more easy to failure and
energy drain, and their battery sources are
usually not replaceable or rechargeable.
Sensor nodes may not have unique global
identifiers (ID), so unique addressing is not
always feasible in sensor networks.
Comparison with Ad Hoc
Wireless Networks
Sensor networks are data-centric, the queries in
sensor networks are addressed to nodes which
have data satisfying some conditions. Ad Hoc
networks are address-centric, with queries
addressed to particular nodes specified by their
unique address.
Data fusion/aggregation: the sensor nodes
aggregate the local information before relaying.
The goals are reduce bandwidth consumption,
media access delay, and power consumption for
communication.
Comparison with ad hoc
networks
Wireless sensor networks mainly use
broadcast communication while ad hoc
networks use point-to-point communication.
Unlike ad hoc networks wireless sensor
networks are limited by sensors limited
power, energy and computational capability.
Sensor nodes may not have global ID because
of the large amount of overhead and large
number of sensors.
