Emerging communication technologies based on wireless sensor networks : current research and future applications edited by Mubashir Husain Rehmani, Al-Sakib Khan Pathan

Electrical and other engineers describe different types of emerging communication technologies based on wireless sensor networks, and explain how such networks can be integrated with other communication technologies. After an overview of wireless sensor networks, they cover wireless body area networks, wireless sensor networks in emerging communication technologies, and wireless sensor network protocols and algorithms. Among the topics are wearable wireless sensor networks: applications, standards, and research trends; electromagnetic wireless nanoscale sensor networks; wireless sensor network management using satellite communication technologies; energy efficient data collection techniques; and distributed data gathering algorithms for mobile sensor networks.
