1.0. Introduction Over the last few years‚ Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) have gained strong popularity in a number of vertical markets‚ including health-care‚ retail‚ manufacturing‚ warehousing‚ and academic areas. These industries have profited from the productivity gains of using hand-held terminals and notebook computers to transmit real time information to centralized hosts data processing [1]. Wireless communications offer users and organizations many benefits such as portability

1. Introduction Recent technological improvements have made the deployment of small‚ inexpensive‚ low-power‚ distributed devices‚ which are capable of local processing and wireless communication‚ a reality. Such nodes are called as sensor nodes. Each sensor node is capable of only a limited amount of processing. But when coordinated with the information from a large number of other nodes‚ they have the ability to measure a given physical environment in great detail. Thus‚ a sensor network can

CHAPTER I THE PROBLEM AND ITS SETTING INTRODUCTION The area of wireless power transmission is very interesting. The technology is in its infancy but the overall benefits from its maturation could be significant to society as a whole. World population is expected to continue to grow exponentially. Five sixths of the world’s population lives in developing nations. Most developing nations such as China‚ India‚ and Pakistan are rapidly improving their standard of living. All of these trends point

Wired and Wireless‚ What’s the Difference? The main difference between a wired and wireless data communication infrastructure is the existence of physical cabling. The same or similar techniques are employed for both types of data communication infrastructure in terms of the core elements of essential network services. The basic difference between a wired and a wireless network is self-explanatory. A wired network uses wires to communicate whereas a wireless network uses radio waves. Another difference
