Sensors can be paired with radio units and deployed to form a wireless ad-hoc sensor network. Actual deployments must consider the coverage that can be achieved with a given numbe...
Robotic sensor networks are more powerful than sensor networks because the sensors can be moved by the robots to adjust their sensing coverage. In robotic sensor networks, an impor...
—As wireless devices and sensors are increasingly deployed on people, researchers have begun to focus on wireless body-area networks. Applications of wireless body sensor network...
