Comparative Analysis of Wireless Operating System

Rajdeep Singh Shaktawat

Abstract: In today's era, Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) has become one of the most challenging area of research as its application range from small data aggregation to large fields (IoT). Wireless Sensor Network is used for diverse applications like agricultural monitoring, environmental monitoring, military, security, health-care any many more. Operating system (OS) plays a vital role in creating an efficient and reliable distributed application over the network. Over the years, many operating systems have emerged in the field of WSN which ease in the development of an application. This paper discusses present operating system for wireless sensor network and their major advantages with issues. It also addresses the architecture design of various WSN operating systems like Tiny OS, Contiki, and Lite OS. Paper concludes with the comparative analysis of all WSN operating system on various parameters.
