WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORK (Reshma Bhat‚ 3rd sem‚EC) Abstract A Wireless Sensor network (WSN) consists of spatially distributed autonomous sensors to cooperatively monitor physical or environmental conditions‚ such as temperature‚ sound‚ vibration‚ pressure‚ motion or pollutants. The development of wireless sensor networks was motivated by military applications such as battlefield surveillance and are now used in many industrial and civilian application areas‚ including industrial

Wired and Wireless‚ What’s the Difference? The main difference between a wired and wireless data communication infrastructure is the existence of physical cabling. The same or similar techniques are employed for both types of data communication infrastructure in terms of the core elements of essential network services. The basic difference between a wired and a wireless network is self-explanatory. A wired network uses wires to communicate whereas a wireless network uses radio waves. Another difference

Wireless network refers to any type of computer network that uses wireless (usually‚ but not always radio waves) for network connections. It is a method by which homes‚ telecommunications networks and enterprise (business) installations avoid the costly process of introducing cables into a building‚ or as a connection between various equipment locations.[1] Wireless telecommunications networks are generally implemented and administered using radio communication. This implementation takes place
