This paper proposed an efficient handover scheme in Multi-PAN Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). A number of edge nodes are set at the edge of each Personal Area Networks (PANs). A user equipment (UE), which has WSN and cellular network interface, acts as sensor node or mobile cluster head in WSN area. Thus, edge early warning can be acquired from edge nodes and neighbor channel information can be acquired with BS-assistance. Simulation results show that low transmission interrupted delay and low energy consumption can be achieved compared with conventional scheme in WSN.展开更多

Since then, it has been an international academic journal sponsored by Tsinghua University and published bimonthly. This journal aims at presenting the state-of-art scientific achievements in computer science, and other IT fields, and is currently indexed by Ei and other abstracting indices. From year 2013, the journal will be available for open access through IEEE Xplore Digital Library. This year's special section on Wireless Computing and Networking of Tsinghua Science and Technology is devoted to gather and present new research that address the challenges in the broad areas of Wireless Networks, Sensor Networks, Wireless Computing and Communication. While Wireless Networks have great potential to provide heterogeneous access and services for ubiquitous users, the demanding communication environment of wireless networks imposes challenges to many interesting research topics, such as channel estimation, communication protocol design, resource management, system design and so on. In Wireless Network research, it is unavoidable to wrestle unique problems such as non-uniform spectrum allocation, various radio resource management policies, economic concerns, the scarcity of radio resources, and user mobility. This Special Section therefore aims to publish high quality, original, unpublished research papers in the broad area of Wireless Computing and Networking, and thus presents a platform for scientists and scholars to share their observations and research results in the field. Specific topics for this special section include but are not limited to:展开更多
