Author:Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MI; Hancke, GP; Isaac, Sherrin JDate:Oct 2012The practical difficulties of setting up a wireless sensor network (WSN) and analysing its performance have made simulation essential for the study of WSNs. The ns-2 network simulator is one of the most widely used tools by researchers to ...Read more
Author:Egidius, PM; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MI; Hancke, GPDate:Oct 2018Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) and the Internet of Things play a critical role in many applications ranging from monitoring, tracking and surveillance, social enhancement and many more. Although WSN is used for applications above, still there ...Read more
Author:Cloete, OP; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MI; Hancke, GPDate:Feb 2019A strong relationship exists between the relevancy of sense data and the location of the data's origin. Current methods for localisation are too demanding on the resources of constrained devices or have high estimation errors. Software Defined ...Read more
Author:Pritchard, SW; Hancke, GP; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MIDate:Jul 2017A Software-Defined Wireless Sensor Network (SD-WSN) is a recently developed model which is expected to play a large role not only in the development of the Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm but also as a platform for other applications such ...Read more
Author:Thupae, R; Isong, B; Gasela, N; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MIDate:Jan 2018Software defined networking (SDN) is a paradigm developed to cope with inherent limitations posed by the lack of flexibility in the traditional networking architecture like the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). The application of SDN in WSN has ...Read more
Author:Kipongo, J; Olwal, TO; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MIDate:Jun 2018The fusion of the two models Software Defined Network (SDN) and Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), gives rise to a new paradigm called Software defined wireless sensor networks (SDWSN). One of the core concepts of SDN is the separation of the ...Read more
Author:Kobo, Hlabishi I; Hancke, GP; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MIDate:Oct 2017Software Defined Networking (SDN) is a developing networking paradigm that advocates a complete overhaul of the conventional networking. SDN decouples the control logic from the data forwarding functionality; which traditionally are coupled ...Read more
Author:Lysko, Albert ADate:Sep 2012This paper discusses steps towards a low-power beam-switching array antenna suitable for wireless sensor network (WSN) applications. Such an antenna will help to improve the signal to noise ratio (SNR), and thus throughput, latency and other ...Read more
Author:Isong, B; Manuel, M; Dladlu, N; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MIDate:Nov 2023The growing application of wireless sensor networks (WSN) has unveiled several opportunities for innovative services and data-driven applications. However, the WSN's inherent vulnerabilities and challenges have raised considerable concerns ...Read more
Author:Adedeji, K; Hamam, Y; Abe, B; Abu-Mahfouz, Adnan MIDate:Sep 2016With increasing population in South Africa coupled with improved standard of living, the demand for water has increased dramatically in the past few years. To meet this demand and for effective water supply, the water loss through leakages ...Read more
