Hybrid Wired and Wireless Sensor Networks Interconnection

Abstract

This paper proposes a integration scheme for heterogeneous wired and wireless sensor networks. In the scheme, a complete solution is provided, in order to achieve enhanced flexibility, efficiency, and performance for the overall networked system. In addition, the hybrid networks integration scheme is able to combine the advantages of both wired and wireless solutions. From the theoretical and simulative perspectives, the paper analyzes the performance parameters, including the cost, the delay time and packet loss rate, and the analytical results show that the performance of the scheme is better than other interconnection techniques.
