Technological developments in the fields of wireless networks have enabled the pro duction of WSNs.WSN is an acronym for Wireless Sensor Network (RCSF in French), often associated with ad-hoc networks due to their common use of radio waves as well as their decentralized architectures.WSNs are embedded systems composed of a set of sensors aimed at collecting or capturing data (such as sound, vibrations, light, etc.) and transmitting it.

In the following, we will study this type of wireless network, its main characteristics, components, and the potential applications of this very promising type of networkThese networks consist of a group of small, mobile devices known as sensors, which are used to measure and monitor environmental variables such as tempe rature, humidity, light, pressure, sound, and others.WSNs are also considered their successors.

Technological developments in the fields of wireless networks have enabled the pro
duction of WSNs. These networks consist of a group of small, mobile devices known as
sensors, which are used to measure and monitor environmental variables such as tempe
rature, humidity, light, pressure, sound, and others. These sensors are characterized by
their small size, low cost, and low energy consumption. WSNs are sometimes compared
to ad hoc networks due to the many common characteristics between them, but in rea
lity they are different from each other [1]. In this chapter, we will provide an overview
of the basic concepts and components of WSNs.
