This book describes how to build wireless sensor networks, from the layers of communication protocols through the design of network nodes. It summarizes the applications of wireless sensor networks, then discusses network device design and the requirements that foster successful performance. The author discusses factors affecting network design, including the partitioning of node functions into integrated circuits, low power system design, power sources, antenna selection, and product design. He also describes the design features of the wireless devices and presents design techniques that improve electromagnetic compatibility and reduce damage from electrostatic discharge.
