Ad Hoc Network
Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs)
– An autonomous collection of mobile users that communicate over
relatively bandwidth constrained wireless links.
– Since the nodes are mobile, the network topology may change rapidly
and unpredictably over time.
– The network is decentralized, where all network activity including
discovering the topology and delivering messages must be executed by
the nodes themselves, MANETs need efficient distributed algorithms to
determine network organization, link scheduling, and routing.
– The set of applications for MANETs is diverse, ranging from small, static
networks that are constrained by power sources, to large-scale, mobile,
highly dynamic networks
– In a military environment, preservation of security, latency, reliability,
intentional jamming, and recovery from failure are significant concerns

Wireless Sensor Network
Consists of a number of sensors spread across a geographical area. Each
sensor has wireless communication capability and some level of intelligence
for signal processing and networking of the data.
– Military sensor networks to detect and gain as much information as
possible about enemy movements, explosions, and other phenomena of
interest.
– Sensor networks to detect and characterize Chemical, Biological,
Radiological, Nuclear, and Explosive (CBRNE) attacks and material.
– Sensor networks to detect and monitor environmental changes in plains,
forests, oceans, etc.
– Wireless traffic sensor networks to monitor vehicle traffic on highways
or in congested parts of a city.
– Wireless surveillance sensor networks for providing security in
shopping malls, parking garages, and other facilities.
– Wireless parking lot sensor networks to determine which spots are
occupied and which are free.

Wireless Sensor Networks
Classification: whether or not the nodes are individually
addressable and whether the data in the network is aggregated.
Goals and Tasks
–
–
–
–
Determine the value of some parameter at a given location: In an
environmental network, one might one to know the temperature,
atmospheric pressure, amount of sunlight, and the relative humidity at a
number of locations. This example shows that a given sensor node may
be connected to different types of sensors, each with a different
sampling rate and range of allowed values.
Detect the occurrence of events of interest and estimate parameters of
the detected event or events: In the traffic sensor network, one would
like to detect a vehicle moving through an intersection and estimate the
speed and direction of the vehicle.
Classify a detected object: Is a vehicle in a traffic sensor network a car,
a mini-van, a light truck, a bus, etc.
Track an object: In a military sensor network, track an enemy tank as it
moves through the geographic area covered by the network.
[30]
WSN Requirement
Large number of (mostly stationary) sensors: Aside from the deployment of sensors on the
ocean surface or the use of mobile, unmanned, robotic sensors in military operations, most
nodes in a smart sensor network are stationary. Networks of 10,000 or even 100,000 nodes are
envisioned, so scalability is a major issue.
Low energy use: Since in many applications the sensor nodes will be placed in a remote area,
service of a node may not be possible. In this case, the lifetime of a node may be determined
by the battery life, thereby requiring the minimization of energy expenditure.
Network self-organization: Given the large number of nodes and their potential placement in
hostile locations, it is essential that the network be able to self-organize; manual configuration
is not feasible. Moreover, nodes may fail (either from lack of energy or from physical
destruction), and new nodes may join the network. Therefore, the network must be able to
periodically reconfigure itself so that it can continue to function. Individual nodes may
become disconnected from the rest of the network, but a high degree of connectivity must be
maintained.
Collaborative signal processing: Yet another factor that distinguishes these networks from
MANETs is that the end goal is detection/estimation of some events of interest, and not just
communications. To improve the detection/estimation performance, it is often quite useful to
fuse data from multiple sensors. This data fusion requires the transmission of data and control
messages, and so it may put constraints on the network architecture.
Querying ability: A user may want to query an individual node or a group of nodes for
information collected in the region. Depending on the amount of data fusion performed, it
may not be feasible to transmit a large amount of the data across the network. Instead, various
local sink nodes will collect the data from a given area and create summary messages. A
query may be directed to the sink node nearest to the desired location.
