Abstract— Currently the need of the hour is how the emerging technologies going to change the existing system. This is an important idea which has been focused by many developers and research scholars. A Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a wireless network consisting of different devices that use sensors to monitor physical or environmental conditions. WSN has greatly influenced in developing various applications and provide a new dimension for research scholars. Most research scholars concentrate on experimenting the ideas, proposals which are complex in nature. In industrial systems, instrumentation leads to the designs of high level configurable and automated systems which measures, regulates and process the data. They play important role in wireless sensor network. This paper discusses in detail about the concepts and techniques in the industrial and instrumental usage of wireless sensor networks.
A typical sensor node consists of the following components: Sensing Element, Battery, Processor, Memory, and Communication Equipment. Sensor is a device which converts a physical phenomenon into an electrical signal. Sensors represent part of the interface between the physical world and the world of electrical devices, such as computers. The other part of this interface is represented by actuators, which convert electrical signals into physical phenomena. [11] Sensing Material may be physical, chemical and biological. Physical
