Abstract

Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks (WMSNs) will boost the capabilities of current wireless sensor networks, and will serve some novel applications, like multimedia surveillance. Today’s world is of automation and WMSN plays a very vital role in today’s world. WMSNs introduce several new research challenges, mainly related to mechanisms of deliver application level Quality-of-Service (e.g., latency minimization). The main research going on today in WMSN are on Video Streaming and on its Security area. The main focus of this research paper is on the problem related to video streaming of WMSN. This research paper introduces some of the solutions/suggestions with the help of which some of the problems like video streaming of wireless multimedia sensor network can be sorted.
