Wireless Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks: A Cross-Layer Design Perspective (Signals and Communication Technology) (Hardcover)

Description

Wireless Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks: A Cross-Layer Design Perspective deals with the emerging design trend that transcends traditional communication layers for performance gains in ad hoc and sensor networks. The author explores the current state of the art in cross-layer approaches for ad hoc and sensor networks, providing a comprehensive design resource.

The book offers a structured comparison and analysis of both layered and cross-layer design, providing readers with an overview of the many issues relating to ad hoc and sensor networks. The benefits of these cross-layer approaches are examined through three diverse case studies: a monitoring sensor network using Radio Frequency waves, an ad hoc network that uses Ultra Wide Band Radio, and an acoustic underwater sensor network for environmental monitoring.

Wireless Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks: A Cross-Layer Design Perspective is interdisciplinary in character, and should be of value to software engineers, hardware engineers, application developers, network protocol designers, graduate students, communication engineers, systems engineers, and university professors.

《無線自組網路與感測網路：跨層設計觀點》探討了在自組網路和感測網路中超越傳統通訊層以提升性能的新興設計趨勢。作者探索了自組網路和感測網路跨層方法的最新研究現狀，提供了一個全面的設計資源。

本書對分層設計和跨層設計進行了結構化的比較和分析，為讀者提供了關於自組網路和感測網路的許多問題的概述。透過三個不同的案例研究，探討了這些跨層方法的優勢：使用無線射頻波的監測感測網路、使用超寬頻無線的自組網路，以及用於環境監測的水下聲學感測網路。

《無線自組網路與感測網路：跨層設計觀點》具有跨學科的特點，對軟體工程師、硬體工程師、應用開發人員、網路協議設計師、研究生、通訊工程師、系統工程師和大學教授都有價值。
