These intelligent monitoring networks allow for greater operational transparency, and enable data analytics, assisting strategic decision making. Asia, Europe and North America are likely to be significant markets.

Increasing Automation of Devices and Adoption of Intelligent Monitoring Systems Expected to Push Market Growth

Wireless sensor network (WSN) refers to an infrastructure-free, self-configured wireless network used in several wireless sensors (as needed) to observe environmental or physical parameters like sound, temperature, pressure, motion, vibration, or contaminants, and to supportively pass information to a key site or sink to be analysed. Sensor nodes are employed in wireless sensor network (WSN) with the onboard processor that observes and manages surroundings in a given area. These are linked to the Base Station (linked by internet to share information) which functions as a processing unit in the wireless sensor network (WSN) system.

Sensors today have become almost all-pervading. For example, sensors in residential buildings detect fire, occupancy, smoke, temperature, and enable security; modern vehicles come equipped with many sensors that monitor performance of engine, brakes, and safety equipment, to name a few; in manufacturing, sensors enable production of safe and quality products. With time, sensors have reduced in size, become more cost-effective, and less- power consuming. Domains that use wireless sensor networks (WSNs) include industrial regulation; building, industrial process, and home automation; smart grid and automated metering infrastructure (AMI); monitoring environmental and energy parameters; transit and parking infrastructure, and inventory control.

Applications of wireless sensor network (WSN) include Internet of Things (IOT); Security Monitoring and Surveillance; Environmental Aspects like and Air Pressure, Humidity, Temperature; Surrounding Noise Levels; Medical Applications; Landslide Identification; Agriculture; and others. Constituents of wireless sensor network (WSN) include sensors, radio nodes, WLAN access point, and evaluation software.
