Tiivistelmä
In recent years, wireless sensor network technology is developing at a surprisingly high speed. More and more fields have started to use the wireless sensor network technology and find the advantages of WSN, such as military applications, environmental observing and forecasting system, medical care, smart home, structure monitoring.
The world Environmental Summit in Copenhagen on 2010 has just concluded that environment has become the world’s main concern. But regrettably the summit did not achieve any useful results. Thus the environmental problem is going to be the most worrying problem in the world. In this way, the Earth’s environment monitoring and management will become more important as it concerns everyone in the world. Therefore, environmental protection and monitoring should be taken into serious consideration.
This thesis mainly introduces the basic theory of wireless sensor network, including the theory of sensor network, advantages of the sensor network, focusing mainly on usage and key technologies of the sensor network. The thesis introduces different simulators for the Wireless Sensor Network experiments and compares the advantage and disadvantage between the simulators. It also describes the usage of environmental monitoring with the example of the monitoring of the Big Duck Island
