低成本无线和处理硬件的进步刺激了一系列无线传感器网络（WSNs）的研究及其随后在许多应用中的部署。由于成本是任何开发中的一个重要因素，因此它们的设计取决于有限的内存大小、有限的计算能力和低功耗等问题。然而，医疗/卫生保健、军事和监控部门等高级应用需要更高级别的网络性能，以支持时间敏感、有保证和安全的高质量数据传输。这些要求苛刻的应用程序驱动需要加强第一代无线传感器网络的概念。
Advances in low cost wireless and processing hardware have stimulated a range of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) research and their subsequent deployment in a number of applications. Since cost is an essential factor in any development, their designs are driven according to issues such as restricted memory size, limited computation power and low power consumption. However advanced applications such as those demanded by the medical/health care, military and surveillance sectors require higher levels of network performance supporting time sensitive, guaranteed and secure high quality data delivery. These demanding applications drive the need to enhance first generation WSN concepts.
