Performance Analysis of Wireless Sensor Networks

Anthony Fynn, anthonynn@yahoo.com

Abstract
The emergence of wireless sensor networks in the past 15 years can be characterized by the amount of research papers published relating to the field. The research papers also characterize the difficulty faced by researchers in selecting appropriate techniques to evaluate their work. In this paper, evaluation techniques presented in research papers on the most important areas of wireless sensor networks are reviewed for their deficiencies as well as their effectiveness.
