Power Considerations for Sensor Networks

چکیده
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are networks composed of small, resource-constrained and collaborative devices. WSNs are used in a plethora of domains including environmental and agricultural monitoring, military operations, in the health care field and in building automation. The three main functions of wireless sensor nodes (also called motes) are to sense the environment, perform computations, store intermediate results and communicate with other motes in the network.
