Provided is a method for managing dormant nodes in a wireless sensor network. The method includes the steps of: a) acquiring and storing information on distance and location of sensor nodes registered in a corresponding cluster among at least one cluster managed by a managing node; b) selecting a dormant object node among the sensor nodes by the managing node; c) transmitting dormant information that the dormant object node should go into a dormant state for a predetermined period through a beacon message to the dormant object node and creating a dormant node management table; and d) updating a dormant time of the dormant node management table every beacon cycle by the managing node according to setup of a dormant time central managing function and notifying dormancy expiration to the corresponding dormant node.

Provided is a method of delivering data in a wireless personal area network. One of nodes forming the wireless personal area network broadcasts data including the address and the sequence number of one node to a plurality of other nodes, and broadcasts one of the data and other data to the other nodes depending on whether the data is received from the other nodes within a predetermined time. Accordingly, all the nodes on the network can receive data reliably and simultaneously power consumption is reduced, and thus the life of the network is extended.

An apparatus for and a method of transmitting sensing data of a sensor node for proactive data filtering in a wireless sensor network are provided. In the apparatus and method, a request query of sensing data and timer parameters are received, local sensing data sensed in the sensor node in response to the received request query are detected, a driving time of a timer applying the timer parameters based on the request query is set, and the local sensing data are transmitted when the local sensing data do not overlap sensing data of a neighboring sensor node within a wireless reception range of the sensor node by overhearing the sensing data of the neighboring sensor node during the set driving time of the timer. Thus, since a data transferring path is selected considering the remaining energy of the node, the energy exhaustion of the node is distributed, thereby improve the lifespan of the network.

Provided is a method for estimating the number of tags in a slotted Aloha-based RFID system, which can estimate the number of tags through a new statistical average scheme using the number of slots, the measured number of empty slots, and the measured number of ID slots. The estimating method includes the steps of: a) setting the number (N) of slots, the measured number (c0) of empty slots, and the measured number (c1) of ID slots as parameters; and estimating the number (n) of the tags by substituting the set values into n=(N−1)/(c0/c1).
