Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have become a leading solution in many important
applications such as intrusion detection, target tracking, industrial automation, smart building …

The wireless medium being inherently broadcast in nature and hence prone to interferences
requires highly optimized medium access control (MAC) protocols. This holds particularly …

In the last years, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have gained increasing attention from
both the research community and actual users. As sensor nodes are generally battery …

A typical wireless sensor node has little protection against radio jamming. The situation
becomes worse if energy-efficient jamming can be achieved by exploiting knowledge of the …

In traditional wireless sensor network (WSN) applications, energy efficiency may be
considered to be the most important concern whereas utilizing bandwidth and maximizing …

Limited energy, computational, and communication resources complicate protocol design
within sensor networks and prevent the application of many techniques used within other …

This paper presents a novel battery health management system for electric UAVs
(unmanned aerial vehicles) based on a Bayesian inference driven prognostic framework …

This chapter provides a broad overview of the MAC protocols especially developed for
sensor networks. These MAC protocols differ from typical WLAN access protocols in that …

Wireless sensor network is a collection of several nodes in a network capable of sharing
information in wireless medium. Due to the presence of wireless medium it is highly …
