Description

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) and the Internet of Things are facing tremendous advances both in terms of energy-efﬁciency as well as in the number of available applications. Consequently, there are challenges that need to be tackled for the future generation of WSNs. After giving an overview of the WSN protocols and IEEE 802.15.4 standard, this book proposes IEEE 802.15.4 Medium Access Control... Read more
