Abstract :
In a pure sensor network thousands of sensors are distributed over a large area. Sensor data is relayed from sensor node to node until it reaches the edge node, where it is then routed by wire to the host. In this paper we study the effect of data collection on the battery and buffer of a sensor node, and on the overall sensor network. We determine the relationship among battery life, sampling frequency, buffer size, etc. We claim that using identical sensors throughout a large scale sensor network may not achieve the best result. We suggest some guidelines for deploying a large scale sensor network. We then propose routing algorithms that are robust, truly distributed, and efficient in utilizing the sensor network.
