Automatic application programming interface for multi hop wireless fidelity wireless sensor network

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a network that consists of low rate devices, to sense, collect and transmit collected data using wireless communication. IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi) is another communication standard that is rapidly being implemented in smart devices like laptops and mobile devices. IEEE 802...
