Outlines • Introduction • The characterization parameters • Taxonomy • Roadmap and Future Trend • Conclusion • References
Introduction • Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) • Consist of individual nodes (Sensors) • Interact with their environment • Have to collaborate to fulfill their tasks • Use wireless communication to enable this collaboration • WSN Applications • The task designed for the sensor network • Based on nodes/sensors • Combine computation and communication abilities.
The characterization parameters • Delivery requirements • Real-Time (RT) • Non-Real-Time (NRT) • Directionality • Unidirectional (Uni) • Bidirectional (Bid) • Communication symmetry • Symmetric (Sym) • Asymmetric (Asym) • End-to-end behavior • End-to-end • Non-end-to-end • Interactivity • Synchronous • Asynchronous • Delay tolerance • Criticality • Mission-critical • Non-mission-critical
The characterization parameters • QoS • Perspectives: • Individual QoS • Collective QoS • Data Delivery Models: • Event-Driven • Query- or Demand-Driven • Continuous Based • Time-Driven • Bit Rate • Latency/Delay • Synchronization • Class of Service • Best-effort delivery (no QoS) • Real-time delivery of time-based information • Modulation • Communication Detection
The characterization parameters • Type of Traffic • Packet Delivery Failure Ratio • Data Acquisition & Dissemination • Event-based • Demand-based • Continuous-based • Time-based
The characterization parameters • Lifetime • Scalability • Density • Sensing Range • Self-organization • Security • Addressing • Programmability • Maintainability • Homogeneity • Mobility Support
The characterization parameters • Microprocessor • Radio Transceiver • Overall Energy Consumption • Sampling Rate • Type of Function • Sensor node • Sink node • Sensor and actuator node • Anchor node • Cluster head • Gateway node • Communication Range • Power Supply • Battery • Harvesting device • Local supply
The characterization parameters • Sensor Network Scenarios • Single hop versus multi-hop • Multiple hop sinks and sources • mobility, scenario • Framework • Public: Urban, Road, Rural, Commercial • Private: Emergency dedicated • Deployment Scenarios • Offices, Industry, Home, Military, Civil, Metropolitan.
Conclusions • A holistic overview of the characterization parameters. • Help designers or researchers to have a complete insight about the possible application requirements or possible outcomes from a specific WSN application area. • Proposed classifications • Rather than the detailed classification from WSN applications, it provides a tool to understand mandatory requirements for WSN application area.
Other Surveys • Concerning the hardware aspects on different WSNs sensor nodes [2]. • A classification organized according to the problems dealt by the MAC (Medium Access Control) protocols [3]. • Survey addresses the evolution of WSN MAC protocols [4]. • Routing protocols [5].
