In order to realize IP-enabled sensor In order to realize IP-enabled sensor networks we need to know –networks we need to know –
How to adapt IP networking to the How to adapt IP networking to the constraints of WSNs.constraints of WSNs.
How to integrate IP-enabled sensor How to integrate IP-enabled sensor networks into the internet.networks into the internet.
Scope for thisScope for this
Traditionally sensor networks are not Traditionally sensor networks are not IP-enabled. Hence we require IP-enabled. Hence we require proxies.proxies.
Problems with this Problems with this approachapproach
Network address needs to be Network address needs to be translated.translated.
We will need to develop new control We will need to develop new control and communication protocols that and communication protocols that would be already standardized for IP would be already standardized for IP communicationcommunication
What we needWhat we need
Sensor networks with IP support which Sensor networks with IP support which can integrate with WAN’s since they can integrate with WAN’s since they could be considered just another part of could be considered just another part of the internetthe internet
