Abstract:Fault tolerance is a critical aspect for any wireless sensor network (WSN), which can be defined in plain terms as the quality of being dependable or performing consistently well. In other words, it may be described as the effectiveness of fault tolerance in the event of crucial component failures in the network. As a WSN is composed of sensors with constrained energy resources, network disconnections and faults may occur because of a power failure or exhaustion of the battery. When such a network is used for … Show more
