16、wide range of applications has been proposed for sensor networks. In practice, however, sensor networks have been built and deployed for a relatively small number of applications. This is partly due to the lack of a business case for certain applications and partly due to technical challenges in bui

17、lding a non-trivial sensor network of reasonable complexity. The main reason for this impediment is the multi- disciplinary expertise such as sensors, communications and networking, signal processing, electronics, computing, and cyber security required to design a sensor network. Presently, the desi

18、gn process is so complex that one can leverage little from one sensor network design to another. It appears as if one has to start from almost scratch every time one wishes to design and deploy a sensor network. Yet, upon closer inspection, there are many commonalities in instantiations of sensor ne

19、tworks that realize various applications. These commonalities include similarities in the choice of network architecture and the entities/functional blocks that are used in the architecture. The purpose of the ISO/IEC 29182 series is to provide guidance to facilitate the design and development of se

20、nsor networks, improve interoperability of sensor networks, and make sensor network components plug-and-play, so that it becomes fairly easy to add/remove sensor nodes to/from an existing sensor network. The ISO/IEC 29182 series can be used by sensor network designers, software developers, system in

21、tegrators, and service providers to meet customer requirements, including any applicable interoperability requirements. The ISO/IEC 29182 series comprises seven parts. Brief descriptions of these parts are given next. ISO/IEC 29182-1 provides a general overview and the requirements for the sensor ne

22、twork reference architecture. ISO/IEC 29182-2 provides definitions for the terminology and vocabulary used in the reference architecture. ISO/IEC 29182-3 presents the reference architecture from various viewpoints, such as business, operational, system, technical, functional, and logical views. This

23、 part of ISO/IEC 29182 categorizes the entities comprising the reference architecture into two classes of physical and functional entities and presents models for the entities. ISO/IEC 29182-5 provides detailed information on the interfaces among various entities in the reference architecture. ISO/I

24、EC 29182-6 provides detailed information on the development of International Standardized Profiles. ISO/IEC 29182-7 provides design principles for the reference architecture that take the interoperability requirements into account. There are no requirements for compliance in the ISO/IEC 29182 series

25、. Users should ensure that the sensor nodes, and the related sensor network, are compliant with the application or deployment governing body.

31、ce Architecture TEDS Transducer Electronic Data Sheet 5 Overview The purpose of this part of ISO/IEC 29182 is to provide basic information about and high-level models for various entities that comprise a sensor network. Entities can be roughly categorized into two classes, physical and functional. P

32、hysical entities are pieces of hardware and actual devices or components thereof that form the network, such as sensor nodes and gateways. For example, while a sensor node is a physical entity, so are any of the sensors in that node. A functional entity, on the other hand, represents a certain task

33、that may be carried out on one or more types of physical entity. For example, data acquisition and collaborative information processing are both functional entities. While the former is carried out by the sensors, the latter is done “collaboratively” by sensor nodes, service providers, and users (or

34、 their machines, to be more precise). Routing and authentication are other examples of functional entities. More often than not, functional entities are pieces of code that run on physical entities. Each entity model presented in this document is a description of the function/role of that entity. An

35、 attempt has been made to provide more detailed models for entities that are specific to sensor networks and typically not found in general-purpose communication networks. Examples of such physical entities include sensors and actuators. Similarly, more detailed models have been provided for functio

36、nal entities such as data processing, self-localization, group management/clustering, collaborative information processing, and device management. A more detailed model may include an input-output relationship for what the entity does, some features of the entity that characterize its capabilities,

37、and a taxonomy of various ways in which the entity may be implemented. Figures 1 and 2 provide an overall view of the entities modelled in this document. Figure 1 is an amalgamation of Figure 3 in ISO/IEC 29182-1 1and Figure 4 in ISO/IEC 29182-3 2 . It shows the physical entities that form a sensor

38、network and how these entities are connected to each other. The blow-up part of the figure is borrowed from ISO/IEC 29182-3 and it shows the internal structure of a sensor node. It implies that actuator(s), although associated with sensor nodes, may not physically reside in sensor nodes. The rest of

39、 the figure comes from ISO/IEC 29182-1 and it depicts a more complex instantiation of a sensor network than the other cases presented in Figures 1 and 2 in ISO/IEC 29182-1. Figure 2 is the same as Figure 7 in ISO/IEC 29182-3. It has been reproduced in this document for ease of reference.2 ISO/IEC 20

41、es in a sensor network and how they relate to each other can at times be confusing. Table 1 is an attempt to remedy this problem. It shows all the physical entities a functional entity could be associated with. The word “could” has been used here, because some physical entities may not be present in

42、 a given sensor network. For example, if there are no service providers in the overall architecture, which would be the case in a stand-alone sensor network, then one cannot say that there is an association between the collaborative information processing functional entity and service providers. In

43、other words, the reader is urged to think of Table 1 as representative of certain possibilities, but not covering all possible ways of which entities might be present in the sensor network and how they might be configured.4 ISO/IEC 2013 All rights reservedBS ISO/IEC 29182-4:2013ISO/IEC 29182-4:2013(

48、he upper part of Figure 1, a sensor node comprises several sub- entities whose models are presented next. Note that the actuator(s), if at all present, may not physically reside inside the sensor node. 6.1.2 Sensors A sensor measures a physical attribute, such as temperature, humidity, or level of carbon monoxide in the air, and converts it into an electric voltage/current. This conversion may be direct or indirect. While in the former case the attribute is directly converted into an electric voltage/current, in the latter case the a
