When a mass of individual targets move closely, it is unpractical or unnecessary to localize and track every specific target in wireless sensor networks (WSN). However, they can be tracked as a whole by view of group target. In order to decrease the amount of…

The estimation of the position of a mobile target on a plane as well as its orientation is an important aspect for many applications. The indoor or outdoor localization of such a target has been widely addressed in the literature but if a third degree of free…

This paper reports on investigations into capacity of ad hoc network whose nodes are equipped with multiple element antennas (MEAs). The investigation of this multi-user Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) system takes into account mutual coupling (MC) in a…

Sensing coverage is a fundamental problem in sensors networks. Different from traditional isotropic sensors with sensing disk, directional sensors may have a limited angle of sensing range due to special applications. In this paper, we study the coverage prob…

A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a collection of nodes equipped with wireless communications and a networking capability without central network control. Nodes in a MANET are free to move and organize themselves in an arbitrary fashion. Energy-efficient des…

A random periodic spectrum sensing scheme is proposed for cognitive radio networks. The sensing period, the transmission time for primary users and cognitive radios are extended to general forms as random variables. A generalized Markov analytical model for s…

Antenna and base-station diversity have been applied to a wireless sensor network for the monitoring of live-stock. A field trial has been described and the advantage to be gained in a practical environment has been assessed.

Quality of Service (QoS) is important in the application of target tracking in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). When a target appears, it will trigger an event from one or more sensors. A target can only be accurately detected if a certain number of event pac…

The research of context-aware computing based on wireless sensor network (WSN) aims at intelligently connecting computers, users, and environment. So its application system should be flexibly adaptable to dynamic changes of context and application requirement…

In WSNs, energy conservation is the primary goal, while throughput and delay are less important. This re-sults in a tradeoff between performance (e.g., throughput, delay, jitter, and packet-loss-rate) and energy con-sumption. In this paper, the problem of ene…

Authors submit their manuscript, metadata, and declarations through the portal. There is no submission fee.
The editorial office screens the manuscript for scope, completeness, and formatting before assigning a handling editor.
At least two independent reviewers evaluate the manuscript under single-blind review. Where revisions are required, authors respond point by point.
On acceptance the article processing charge is invoiced and the CC BY 4.0 copyright handover is signed.
The article is copyedited, typeset, and given a DOI, then publishes open access with a permanent link.
Manuscripts must be original and not under consideration elsewhere. Submit in Microsoft Word or LaTeX with figures at 300 dpi minimum. Structure research articles as Abstract, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, and References.
Use the journal's numbered (Vancouver) reference style. Cite sources consecutively in the order they appear, and ensure every reference is complete and retrievable.
Declare all funding sources, conflicts of interest, and ethical approvals (including informed consent and animal-care statements where applicable).
