January 2005

his book is motivated by the urgent need to provide a comprehensive and organized survey of the field. It starts by showing how the core challenges of energy efficiency, robustness, and autonomy are addressed in these systems by networking techniques across multiple layers. The topics covered include network deployment, localization, time synchronization, wireless radio characteristics, medium access, topology control, routing, datacentric techniques, and transport protocols. Ideal for researchers and designers seeking to create new algorithms and protocols, and engineers implementing integrated solutions, it also contains many exercises and can be used by graduate students taking courses in Networks.

• Comprehensive up-to-date coverage of topics in wireless sensor networks, describing well over 100 key algorithms, protocols, and analytical results
• Many exercises involving in-depth reasoning, calculations, and simulations
• Author developed one of the first regular courses on Wireless Sensor Networks
