Industrial Wireless Sensor Networks 6-13
need to be explored in the future. For example, because of the diverse industrial application requirements
and large scale of the network, several technical problems still remain to be solved in analytical
IWSN models in terms of communication latency and reliability, and energy efficiency. Other open
issues include optimal sensor node deployment, localization, security, and interoperability between different
IWSN manufacturers. Finally, to cope with RF interference and dynamic/varying wireless channel
conditions in industrial environments, porting a cognitive radio paradigm to a low-power industrial
sensor node and developing controlling mechanisms for channel hand-off is another challenging area
yet to be explored.
