In the last years, the Internet of Things (IoT) has emerged as a key application context in the
design and evolution of technologies in the transition toward a 5G ecosystem. More and …

This paper presents bit error rate (BER) analysis of wireless sensor networks (WSNs)
consisting of sensor nodes based on an IEEE 802.15. 4 RF transceiver. Closed-form …

The paper discusses the operation of wireless sensor networks consisting of nodes based
on the IEEE 802.15. 4 ZigBee transceiver operating in the presence of Rayleigh or …

In this paper, we investigate the issues of initialization and deployment of wireless sensor
networks (WSNs) under IEEE 802.11 b/g interference and fading channels using frequency …

The packet error rate of wireless links is known to increase with the length of packets. Yet,
packet length is rarely taken into account in protocols and algorithms estimating the packet …

Abstract IEEE 802.15. 4 standard is widely used in the field of low-power, low-cost and low-
bit rate communications. In this paper, we analyze performance of an IEEE 802.15. 4 …

The use of remote sensing technology has made it possible for the non-contact
measurement of soil moisture content (SMC). Many remote sensing techniques can be used …

One of the major weakness of Wireless Sensor Networks is the energy consumption
because of limited battery resource and battery replacement or recharging difficulty. The …

In this paper, we investigate the energy efficiency of a IEEE 802. 15. 4 based RF transceiver
using Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum-Offset Quadrature Phase Shift Keying …

A novel, mathematically tractable expression for evaluation of the average chip error
probability (CEP) in the networks based on IEEE802. 15.4 standard, operating in the 2450 …
