Network Topologies in Wireless Sensor Networks: A Review

Divya Sharma, Sandeep Verma, Kanika Sharma · 2013

In Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), sensor nodes have limited battery power, so energy consumption is essential issue. Every sensor node can obtain its location information from GPS or other positioning system and send data to sink at any time. In this paper, comparison of the dynamic network topologies in Wireless Sensor Networks has been done. The characteristic of this is to divide WSN into network based on Topologies i.e. Bus, Tree, Star, Ring, Mesh, Circular, Grid. Information of the position of nodes, and those nodes are organized within the network by the Topological way.
