THE SENSORS NETWORKS WSN AND VSN: A THEORETICAL COMPARISON

The development of wireless technology currently allows extending the notion of mobility for access to information and communication anywhere and anytime. With the emergence of sensor networks (Traditional (WSN) and vehicular (VSN)), new themes have been opened and new challenges have emerged to meet the needs of individuals and the requirements of several application areas. Research today is much focused on vehicular sensor networks (VSN), considerable efforts have emerged to introduce intelligence into transport systems whose aim is to improve safety, efficiency and usability in road transport. These networks will play an important role in building the Future Internet, where they will serve as a support for various communication applications and integrated into our daily lives. In this paper, we surveyed the main characteristic and applications of two type of Ad hoc networks WSN and VSN.
