Abstract [en]
In recent years the advances in wireless sensor networks have grown exponentially and WSNs have been deployed in diverse application areas such as agriculture, disaster management, intelligent transport systems, and industrial automation. In industrial automation, wireless sensor networks have so far mostly been considered within building automation, factory automation, and process automation in order to save cost in cable reduction and maintenance but also improved flexibility [14]. Recently, wireless sensor networks for smart grid applications have been discussed. Several market forecasts have recently predicted exponential growths in the sensor market over the next few years, resulting in a multi-billion dollar market in the near future. For instance, ABI research [18] predicts that in 2015 around 645 million IEEE 802.15.4 chipsets will be shipped and that the worldwide market for automation systems in process industries will grow to roughly $150 billion.
