The use of a low-power wake-up radio in wireless sensor networks is considered in this
paper, where relevant medium access control solutions are studied. A variety of …

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are envisioned to be an important enabling technology for
smart grid (SG) due to the low cost, ease of deployment, and versatility of WSNs. Limited …

Wireless Sensor and Actor Networks (WSANs) have greatly enhanced the existing Wireless
Sensor Network (WSN) by its heterogeneous node structure. WSAN is a collection of static …

This paper introduces an adaptive, energy-aware and distributed fault-tolerant topology-
