ABSTRACT: Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN)
have recently become one of the major research areas in the wireless
communication field and are implemented in a variety of applications. One of
these applications that will be tackled in this paper is monitoring
electromagnetic (EM) pollution that is mostly caused by a variety of wireless
devices that we use in our daily life. This paper presents a generic algorithm
that uses a WSN to monitor EM hazardous emissions and reports variation caused
by four violators. Additionally it calculates the network’s lifetime and
simultaneously studies the effect of random parameters and their distributions
on the network. Finally the different combinations of the random parameters and
the altered distributions are compared together to achieve the combination that
can prolong the network’s lifetime.
