This book fills a gap in the existing literature by combining a plethora of WSN-based emerging technologies into a single source so that reviewers can form opinions regarding these technologies. It presents different types of emerging communication technologies based on WSNs and describes how wirele..

An authoritative collection of research papers and surveys, this book explores recent developments in next-generation wireless networks (NGWNs) and mobile broadband networks technologies. Focusing on improving the performance of wireless networks and provisioning better quality of service and qualit..

The advances in low-power electronic devices integrated with wireless communication capabilities are one of recent areas of research in the field of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). One of the major challenges in WSNs is uniform and least energy dissipation while increasing the lifetime of the netwo..

This book considers the advantages and shortcomings of popular fieldbuses, including HART, Foundation Fieldbus, and Profibus. It presents an overview of data communication, networking, cabling, surge protection systems, and device connection techniques, and provides comprehensive coverage of intrins..

This comprehensive technical guide explains game theory basics, architectures, protocols, security, models, open research issues, and cutting-edge advances and applications. Describing how to employ game theory in infrastructure-based wireless networks and multihop networks to reduce power consumpti..

Focusing on heterogeneous networks, this book addresses important resource management and security issues found in networks and uses theoretical tools to model them. Although it explores network design and management from the theoretical perspective of game theory and graph theory, the text also pro..

This book proposes novel context-inferring algorithms and generic framework designs that can help readers enhance existing tradeoffs in mobile sensing, especially between accuracy and power consumption. It provides numerous application examples that guide readers from fundamental concepts to the imp..
