摘要：Advances in microelectronic mechanical systems (MEMS) and wireless communication technologies have enabled wireless sensor networks (WSNs) to do a wide range of tasks, such as environmental detection, traffic monitoring, and control. WSNs are composed of hundreds or even thousands of sensor nodes. They are designed and implemented for monitoring the physical world, gathering sensed information, and transmitting the generated data packets to interested end users. In emergent event reporting applications, such as forest fire detection and toxic gas leak detection, sensor nodes detect events or phenomena respectively and report sensed data to sink node as soon as possible.
