Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN)

Introduction to WSN

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), is an infrastructure-less


wireless network that is deployed in a large number of
wireless sensors in an ad-hoc manner that is used to
monitor the system, physical, or environmental conditions
• - Applications: Agriculture, Healthcare,
Military, Industrial Monitoring, Smart Cities,
etc.
• -
Network Topologies in WSN
• - Star Topology: Each node communicates
directly with a central gateway.
• - Mesh Topology: Nodes communicate with
multiple neighboring nodes, providing
redundancy.
• - Tree Topology: A hierarchical structure with
parent and child nodes.
• -
Components of WSN Architecture
• - **Sensor Nodes:** Devices that collect data from the
environment.
• - **Sink Node (Gateway):** Collects data from sensor
nodes and forwards it.
• - **Network Communication:** Wireless protocols like
Zigbee, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, LoRa.
• - **Power Supply:** Battery-powered or energy harvesting
techniques.
• - **Processing Unit:** Microcontrollers or embedded
processors to process collected data.
