Unique Constraints And


Challenges in Sensor
Networking
Elementrix Classes
❏ Limited energy resources: Sensors in a network often rely on
batteries or other limited energy sources, which means that
energy efficiency is a critical concern in sensor network design.
❏ Limited computational resources: Many sensors have limited
processing power and memory, which can make it challenging
to perform complex tasks or store large amounts of data.
❏ Limited communication range: Sensors often have a limited
communication range, which can make it difficult to transmit
data over long distances or through physical barriers.
❏ Dynamic network topology: The topology of a sensor network
can change frequently as sensors are added, removed, or move
around, which can make it difficult to maintain reliable
communication.
❏ Heterogeneity of sensors: Sensors can have different
capabilities, such as different sensing ranges, resolutions, and
accuracy. This heterogeneity can make it challenging to design
algorithms and protocols that can be used effectively by all
sensors in the network.
❏ Security: Sensors are often deployed in remote or unsecured
locations, which can make them vulnerable to tampering or
attacks.
❏ Interference: Sensor networks can be susceptible to
interference from other electronic devices or environmental
factors, which can affect the accuracy and reliability of the data
being collected.
❏ Maintenance: Sensor networks can be complex systems that
require regular maintenance to ensure that they are operating
correctly.
❏ Lack of standards: There are currently no widely adopted
standards for sensor networks, which can make it difficult to
integrate sensors from different manufacturers or use them in
different applications.
❏ Limited data storage: Many sensors have limited data storage
capabilities, which can make it challenging to store large
amounts of data or transmit it to a central location for analysis.
