Abstract :
Configuring a WSN platform to work seamlessly for various applications is a desirable feature in WSN platforms. Such feature allows expedited design and deployment catering for new applications using existing platforms. This paper describes a Plug-and-Play (PnP) protocol which allows the customizing of WSN platforms for a broad range of applications using sensor modules. Sensor modules are independent sensing devices that attach to a WSN platform and provide an application dependent solution. Sensor modules are automatically detected and configured by Sprouts upon their attachment to one of the available PnP sensor module ports.
