An Overview of Wireless Sensor Network Applications and Related Issues

Rinku Shandilay, Satish Kumar

Abstract


WSN or wireless sensor networks are used in many field like military, health care, biological, environmental monitoring, home applications and many other commercial applications. Wireless sensor networks are capable to collect the information as wireless sensor networks are the collection of sensor nodes. Sensor nodes have the capability of sensing, actuating and relaying on the collected data or information. This paper presents the overview of wireless sensor network (WSNs) application and some related issues to WSNs applications.
