Abstract
<p>Small devices that can sense and collect data from the surrounding environment have been produced with the rapid development of wireless technology and digital electronics. As a result, a wireless sensor network (WSN) was constructed from these sensor devices to send collected data to the base station for monitoring and analysis. This paper provides an overview of WSN, as well as its architecture and applications.</p>
