Introduction:
A wireless sensor network is a category of dispersed and dedicated sensors in order to
record and track the physical conditions of the environment and then organize the data that is
collected at the main location. The wireless network includes number of nodes and base
stations. These networks are utilized in order to observe environmental or physical conditions
like pressure, sound, temperature and many more and then pass data co-operatively through
the network to the central location. There are various types of protocols in the WSNs. The
protocols of the WSNs include the MAC protocols, routing protocols and the physical layer
protocols.
The report deals with an organization AMY Networks, which are a consultancy
business and the operations of the organization, is to installs, designs and operates various
types of wired and the wireless networks for the research businesses and research. The report
focuses on the network solution that will be provided by the AMY Networks. As the AMY
Networks is one of the leaders of project, the company is asked in order to answer to an
request to Tender for the network design.

Logical Design
Figure 1: Logical Design of the WSN
(Source: Created By Author)
The logical diagram is created based on the requirement of California forestry
department and multiple sensor nodes are installed for the development of wireless sensor
network. Bluetooth connection is used for connecting the sensor nodes and it uses multilink
connection for communicating with the sensors and transmitting data to the sink station. The
wireless access point is used as the base station for sending and receiving data to the sensor
nodes and monitor or control their operation. Temperature sensor are used for sensing the
temperature and if goes beyond the threshold data is sent to the nearby connected sensor node
for transmitting the data and trigger the alarm.
