A Novel Approach to use Nano-Sensor in WSN Applications

Abstract

A particle that is able to sense a physical or environmental property at the nanoscale known as a NanoSensor. So it is assumed to be able to sense the properties of environmental conditions at very small and gaseous level. A nanosensor has unique properties of nanomaterials and nanoparticles to detect different events in the nanoscale. A nanosensor now assumed to be useful for the communication when it has Sensing unit, Actuation unit, Power unit, Processing unit, Storage unit, and Communication unit. In this paper we provide a framework to its use for the Mote in the wireless Sensor Networks. In this type of networks the NSU has a lot of importance that has a nanosensing unit. Inside NSU, we are suggesting to use the ZnO based memory due to its reliable and repeated switching of the resistance. Thus, after the combination of these two type of sensors, the network has a strong sensing capability at the nanoscale and communicating capability through WSN.
