Deployment:
Deployment
[27,28]
means
implementing the wireless sensor network in real
world location. It is very laborious and cumbersome
activity and depends on the demographic location
of the application that how network will be
deployed. At locations which are hard to reach,
sensors are dropped from helicopter or may be in
some locations sensors are placed according to
some topology. Energy management issues like
battery recharge and changing are challenges in real
world scenarios. Deployment of sensor networks
results in network congestion due to many
concurrent transmission attempts made by several
sensor nodes. Low data yield is a problem in real
world scenario as network delivers insufficient
amount of information.

III. CONCLUSIONS
Various research issues and challenges pertaining to
WSNs that have been experienced by the researchers are
presented in this work. Sensor networks have many
challenges, but its vast number of applications lures
researchers to investigate more into it. A thorough
investigation reveals that WSN is a multidisciplinary field.
On one side it demands scalable architecture from the
hardware engineers to ensure good Quality of service; on the
other end, it demands energy efficient algorithms and
protocols from software engineers to make them practical
and feasible. Energy saving is one of the main concern and
various research issues ultimately boils down to minimize it
by all means. Overall, a holistic approach and coordinated
effort is desired from the research fraternity to make WSNs a
reality. These efforts are worth as WSNs hold a vast
potential for the overall benefit of mankind and to make
pervasive computing a possibility in the coming times.

Multimedia
Communication:
Multimedia
information is collected and communicated by the
sensor network. In addition to data delivery modes
typical of scalar sensor networks, multimedia data
include snapshot and streaming multimedia content
[33]. Processing and delivery of multimedia content
are not independent and their interaction has a
major impact on the achievable QoS. They demand
high bandwidth for transmission.
Real Time Operation: Many real-time wireless
sensor networks must
achieve real-time
performance over extremely long lifetimes [3].
While energy harvesting has shown promise as an
enabling technology for long-running wireless
sensor networks, it also introduces new challenges
to real-time processor scheduling due to fluctuating
energy sources and limited capacity of energy
storage.
