The wireless sensors network applications are widely used in health monitoring systems. In fact, they contribute to the qualitative development of these networks so as to ensure the tireless clock surveillance, and improve and regulate the quality of monitoring. Associated with improving the performance of wireless medical sensor networks WMSN is improving data transfer mechanism which is one of the most important areas of interest to research and study in recent times. Hence the importance of this research lies in the study of the structures of wireless sensor networks that can be used to control the wards in hospitals, health centers and monitoring care. The research also draws necessary recommendations and suggestions for the selection of appropriate medical wireless sensors networks structure and proposees appropriate medium access control mechanism in order to build networks of different sizes. This has been done by proposing appropriate scenarios for surveillance applications to perform simulation that is similar to the working conditions of the networks. This can ensure the transfer of nodes data to the main access point and can give an opportunity to study the impact of network architecture and how to use the data transfer technology, specifically the use of ZigBee technology, both with beacon mode enabled inenabled. Improvement was evaluated based on the basic parameters in such networks, such as throughput, the time delay, and the delivery ratio. The study found a set of recommendations regarding the size of the network, the type of structure and the mechanism used to access medium.

The use of wireless sensor networks to monitor and control the precise agriculture is one of the areas which received broad concern in recent times, for the services, facilities and the reliability provided by these networks on the monitoring and con trol level. This research contributes to the study of the application of this technique in greenhouses deployed over large areas in our country. It offers solutions for networks of monitoring and control, in real time, and ensures a good performance according to the essential evaluating criteria, such as reducing the time-delay, and increases throughput, increases the delivery ratio of packets, and reduces the number of packets lost along with increased network load. In order to do that, a number of scenarios are proposed. These scenarios are similar to the reality of the construction and operation of the greenhouses in our region relying on ZigBee technique. Wireless sensors networks of these scenarios have been tested, using simulation in order to make conclusion and recommendations to guide the work while installing such networks in place to work as their best for different areas and a large number of lounges
Telehealth is a promising technology in its effectiveness, accuracy and prevalence, and given the importance of medical care and monitoring in areas that lack adequate medical staff or are difficult to access on the one hand, and as a result of the h igh costs of medical treatment, especially for the elderly on the other hand. Wireless body sensor networks (WBAN) has received a lot of attention from research and development, especially as a result of the tremendous development in wireless sensor networks and modern electronics that have caused smart small size sensors that can be positioned inside or on the body. In our research, we will discuss the use of these modern networks in the medical field, in particular patient monitoring in hospitals, as continuous monitoring and control of vital parameters here are of great importance to patients' lives. The basic idea is to publish a group of sensor devices with a specific formation on the patient’s body, and these devices have several functions to perform the integrated work of measuring and sensing important parameters, and send them as information to a coordinated node that collects these data and sends them to a main station that processes this information and makes decision. Then, it sends a message of this decision to the deployed agencies that translate this decision in order to adjust the parameters again.
The location of wireless sensor nodes located in the center is necessary for applications where information about the site is important information such as security, protection, object tracking and other applications. localization algorithms are c lassified into two types: Range-based and Range-free. The study focused on Range-free localization algorithms because they are less expensive in terms of hardware requirements. The MATLAB was used to simulate the algorithms, whose performance was evaluated by changing the number of network nodes, the number of Anchor nodes, and the contract area of communication in order to illustrate performance differences in terms of localization error. The results showed the superiority of the amorphous algorithm, achieving high localization accuracy and lower cost for the number of Anchor nodes needed to achieve a small error.
The great development of mobile wireless sensor networks has many very important applications. One of the most important applications that has attracted scientists' attention recently is to track animals in their homes to follow the behavior and li ves of some endangered animals, but monitoring animals activities in the forest is a very difficult task, especially if the animals to be monitored are teeny, therefore we cannot use the traditional tracking systems ) like GPS, As well as the harsh and dangerous nature of the forest make the use of wireless sensor networks the best solution, especially that sensors are low-cost, small size, which made them suitable for such tasks, in this research we will study new way to track a group of partridge where sensors are placed on these birds to observe their life and behavior ,The important challenge in this research is to know the location of these mobile birds to be able to the help them in appropriate time , so will introduce a new method that provides us with acceptable accuracy, a simple, easy, inexpensive and low energy consumption compared with other methods of animals tracking ,based on a set of predefined reference nodes, where sensors information is sent to a gathering center through these reference nodes ,then Analyze it and use it to the approximate location of the animals. We will evaluate this method using Network Simulator (NS2).
The tracking using wireless sensor networks is one of the applications that are experiencing significant growth. Due to considerations of wireless sensor networks in terms of limited energy source, researches continue to improve methods of routing and transforming information to ensure lower power. Therefore, we have in this research improved the routing of target location information within WSN by providing a new algorithm, which takes advantage of the concept of clustering for wireless network sensors, with the addition of the possibility of interaction between field sensors that belong to different clusters, where in other cases, they cannot interact with each other in the traditional case of cluster networks. to get rid of repeating the same information transfer, we depend on the parameter intensity of the received signal from the target in the sensors, which will reflect positively on the network age, and give a more accurate indication of the target site. We have implemented the proposed algorithm and showed the results of using the simulator OPNET which is one of the best simulators in the field of various types of networks.
