A wireless sensor network or WSN is a wireless network of devices that communicate with each other through wireless links such that each device has a sensor to monitor its surrounding environment. The wireless connectivity between the nodes is provided through a gateway to ensure data transfer between the nodes. A typical network has a base station along with the sensory nodes.

This paper gives an overview of WSNs advances, conventions, principle applications, dangers and difficulties in WSNs. Because of the incomprehensible capability of sensor systems to empower applications that interface the physical world to the virtual world, the efficient outline and usage of remote sensor systems has turned out to be a standout amongst the most vital advancements for the twenty-first century. A WSN regularly comprises of a substantial number of minimal effort, low-control, and multifunctional remote sensor hubs, with detecting, remote correspondences and calculation capacities. The movement of detecting, preparing, and correspondence under restricted measure of vitality, lights a cross-layer configuration approach commonly requiring the joint thought of disseminated flag/information handling, medium get to control, and correspondence conventions. In this paper different conventions for remote sensor system are talked about. WSN might be vulnerable for different assaults, which are examined under dangers. The fundamental application ranges for WSNs are additionally examined here. INTRODUCTION With the prominence of tablets, PDAs, PDAs, GPS gadgets, RFID, and canny hardware in the post-PC period, figuring gadgets have turned out to be less expensive, more versatile, more circulated, and more unavoidable in everyday life. It is presently conceivable to develop, from business off-the-rack (COTS) parts, a wallet estimate inserted framework with the equal ability of a 90's PC. Such implanted frameworks can be bolstered with downsized Windows or Linux working frameworks. From this viewpoint, the development of remote sensor systems (WSNs) is basically the most recent pattern of Moore's Law toward the scaling down and universality of processing gadgets. Ordinarily, a remote sensor hub (or basically sensor hub) comprises of detecting, processing, correspondence, activation, and power parts. These parts are incorporated on a solitary or numerous sheets, and bundled in a couple of cubic inches. With cutting edge, low-control circuit and systems administration advances, a sensor hub controlled by 2 AA batteries can keep going for up to three years with a 1% low obligation cycle working mode. A WSN for the most part comprises of tens to a great many such hubs that impart through remote channels for data sharing and helpful handling. WSNs can be sent on a worldwide scale for natural observing and living space consider, over a combat zone for military observation and surveillance, in new situations for inquiry and safeguard, in manufacturing plants for condition based support, in structures for foundation wellbeing checking, in homes to acknowledge savvy homes, or even in bodies for patient checking. After the underlying arrangement (normally specially appointed), sensor hubs are in charge of self-sorting out a fitting system foundation, data handling and directing in Wireless Sensor Networks with multi-jump associations between sensor hubs. The installed sensors then begin gathering acoustic, seismic, infrared or attractive data about nature, utilizing either consistent or occasion driven working modes. Area and situating data can likewise be gotten through the worldwide situating framework (GPS) or neighbourhood situating calculations. This data can be accumulated from over the system and suitably handled to develop a worldwide perspective of the observing wonders or questions. The essential theory behind WSNs is that, while the capacity of every individual sensor hub is restricted, the total force of the whole system is adequate for the required mission. A WSN can be by and large portrayed as a system of hubs that helpfully sense and may control the

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are based on innovative technologies that had revolutionized the methods in which we interact with the environment; i.e., through sensing the physical (e.g., fire motion, contact) and chemical (e.g., molecular concentration) properties of the natural surroundings. The hardware in which utilized by WSNs is rapidly evolving into sophisticated platforms that seamlessly integrate with different vendors and protocols (plug-n-play). In this thesis, we propose a WSN framework which provides assistance with monitoring environmental conditions; we focus on three main applications which include: a. Air-quality monitoring, b. Gas-leak detection, and c. Fire sensing. The framework involves four specifications: 1. Over the air programming (OTAP), 2. Network interconnections, 3. Sensors manageability, and 4. Alarm signaling. Their aim is to enhance the internetwork relations between the WSNs and the outside-world (i.e., main users, clients, or audience); by creating a medium in which devices efficiently communicate, independent of location or infrastructure (e.g., Internet), in order to exchange data among networked-objects and their users. Therefore, we propose a WSN-over-IP architecture which provides several renowned services of the Internet; the major functionalities include: live-data streaming (real-time), e-mailing, cloud storage (external servers), and network technologies (e.g., LAN or WLAN). WSNs themselves operate independently of the Internet; i.e., their operation involve unique protocols and specific hardware requirements which are incompatible with common network platforms (e.g., within home network infrastructure). Hybrid technologies are those which support multiple data-communication protocols within a single device; their main capabilities involve seamless integration and interoperability of different hardware vendors. We propose an overall architecture based on hybrid communication technology in which data is transmitted using three types of protocols: 802.11 (Wi-Fi), 802.15.4 and Digimesh (WSN).
