Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The field of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is rapidly expanding with the incorporation of intelligent technologies. This integration combines wireless communication, sensor technology, and intelligent algorithms to create innovative solutions across various domains. Intelligent technologies are instrumental in enhancing the capabilities and effectiveness of WSNs. Through intelligent algorithms and advanced data processing, WSNs can perform tasks such as data fusion, data mining, machine learning, and distributed decision-making.
WSNs have transformed the process of collecting and utilizing data from the physical environment. The introduction of intelligent technologies has further elevated the power of WSNs, enabling real-time applications and addressing complex challenges. This Special Issue seeks to explore the latest research and applications of intelligent technologies in WSNs, with a specific focus on their integration, development, resource allocation, and real-time capabilities. However, contributions discussing the intelligent integration of WSNs in other areas are also welcomed. The topics to be covered in this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Machine learning and deep learning techniques for WSNs;
- Intelligent data fusion and decision-making in WSNs;
- Intelligent routing and communication protocols;
- Adaptive and self-configuring WSNs;
- Energy-efficient software protocols and algorithms for WSNs;
- Intelligent dynamic spectrum access techniques for WSNs;
- Intelligent software solutions for WSN deployment, monitoring, and management;
- Intelligent hardware and electronic solutions for WSNs;
- Low-power electronics and circuit design for WSNs;
- Security and privacy considerations in intelligent WSNs;
- Energy harvesting in WSNs;
- Intelligent scheduling algorithms in WSNs;
- Blockchain and distributed ledger protocols for WSNs;
- Cross-layer design and interactions;
- Multicast and anycast routing in WSNs;
- Modelling and verification of WSNs;
- Intelligent Application and use-cases of Internet of Things and WSN;
- Intelligent Management of heterogeneous WSNs;
- Computer Vision systems for WSN;
- Smart farming using IoT and WSN.
We encourage researchers and practitioners to submit original research articles, reviews, and case studies that contribute to the intelligent integration of WSNs. Manuscripts should adhere to the guidelines provided by the MDPI Sensors journal.
By compiling diverse perspectives and advancements in intelligent technologies applied to WSNs, this Special Issue will foster innovation and drive the development of efficient, real-time WSN solutions. The published research will contribute to addressing critical challenges in various domains and pave the way for future advancements in intelligent WSN applications
