Summary

Introduction

Wireless sensor network (WSN) is a hot issue and new trend of ubiquitous computing technologies to implement the ubiquitous society. These applications require efficient and flexible sensor networks [4]. WSNs are composed of a collection of many sensor nodes that are deployed in a sensor field, each of which collects data and relays them to the base station (called a sink node) where data can be analyzed, applied, and used efficiently. A sensor node is made of a sensing device, a processing unit, a transceiver, and a power unit.
