Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The description provided fits the term Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), which consist of interconnected wireless devices embedded in the physical environment to collect data from various sensors and transmit that data to a central node for analysis. MANs (Metropolitan Area Networks), WANs (Wide Area Networks), LANs (Local Area Networks), and PANs (Personal Area Networks) do not specifically involve the use of embedded wireless devices for environmental sensing.
