The example range of applications include military (e.g., homeland security, battlefield reconnaissance, landmine detection, and deactivation), health care (e.g., patient health and behavior monitoring) [2], critical infrastructure protection (e.g., oil and gas pipeline monitoring and maintenance) [3, 4], and civilian (e.g., disaster management).
The development of wireless sensor network (WSN) technologies has opened new possibilities for different types of sensing applications, directly supporting monitoring in home automation, weather forecasting, traffic management, public security, industrial automation, battlefield surveillance, rescue operations, among many others [1, 2].
Following negotiations, the HV agreed to pull back on 11 April, but later declined to do so, claiming deteriorating security at the battlefield in general prevented the withdrawal.

In the ever-escalating skirmishes between photographers and security agencies, the most significant battlefield is probably the public way - streets, sidewalks, parks and plazas - which has customarily been regarded as a vantage from which photography cannot and should not be barred.
In recent years, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been used as an important information gathering paradigm in a wide range of applications, such as environmental monitoring, target tracking, battlefield surveillance, home security, and health monitoring [1].
A wireless sensor network (WSN) has attracted considerable attention, because of its great potential in various applications such as battlefield surveillance, traffic, security, weather forecasts [1 3], health care, and home automation.
