Integration in the Heterogeneous Wireless Sensor Networks Based on Network Layer

Abstract

In the next generation wireless sensor networks system, various wireless technologies and wired networks in together, in order to meet the various needs of users. Our focus in this paper is to introduce a few design goals, different wireless/wired networks complement each other, thus help users to access the best network in accordance with the current business. Each network is different with each other in the network structure, application protocol and user demand, therefore need a unified public architecture to connect multiple access network. This paper surveys the novel approach of using IP technology recognized as the next generation of integration means of wireless sensor networks. This paper also presents using all-IP network architecture to support the heterogeneous access of the next generation wireless sensor networks, to support the integration and interoperability between heterogeneous wireless sensor networks, and to complete wireless mobile terminal roaming in a heterogeneous environment.
