Sensor Networks with IEEE 802.15.4 Systems Distributed Processing, MAC, and Connectivity

This book presents a simple, yet complete, approach to the design and performance analysis of distributed processing algorithms and techniques suitable for IEEE 802.15.4 networks. In particular, the book focuses on the bottom two layers of the ISO/OSI stack (Physical and Medium Access Control), disc...
