摘要:A Wireless Nano Sensor Network (WNSN) is a collection of Nano Sensor nodes that dynamically self organize them in a wireless network without a need but with possible utilization of any pre-existing infrastructure. WNSNs may be employed on the wildlife health and condition monitoring. Most of the current research in WNSNs on wildlife monitoring is performed on theoretical basis involving simulations of abstract, unrealistic situations. The research focusing on the real life evaluation of the WNSN techniques involves usually nano-scale studies with the very limited number of nodes attached with the body of the wild animals. The major problem with the Sensors/ Radio Collar which are attached to the body of wild animals is size of the mote. For which reasons they feel uncomfortable and when they try to be free from it, the mechanism would be damaged. Then it is needed to be changed and it affects the cost. And for the macro size of the Sensors/ Radio Collar, the power consumption is also high which is the main problem is for the maintainer. It requires changing the battery frequently. Finding the location of that certain animal and putting it into a cage after tranquilization claimed a huge amount time and labour.
