Maximizing the lifetime of wireless sensor networks in trains for monitoring long-distance goods transportation

One key issue in designing battery-powered wireless sensor networks is to properly control the energy consumption of the sensor nodes in order to prolong their operation time (i.e. lifetime ). In this article, we present a real-life application of wireless sensor networks in trains to monitor the go...
