Current research works on a tiny problem and ignoresother issues. When someone tries to combine theseefforts, mismatches arise. Consider a combat sensornetwork, which uses minimal transmitter power andclose node spacing. There are several drawbacks: (1) Many sensors could increase physical andelectronic discovery. (2) More network congestion. (3) Fast network death. (4) Information is late andvague. (5) The human operator is at risk.This book integrates software, hardware, and security(being undetected) for supporting the network. Theapproach could solve problems with better securityand longer life. To do this, the base station (BS)must be able to communicate with many nodes at thesame time on several channels, to quickly handlelarge volume of information, to have unlimited power,and to have a directional antenna with activesectors. Each node would transmit straight to theBS, would be able to change frequencies, and wouldreact to control messages."All truth passes through three stages. First, it isridiculed, second it is violently opposed, and third,it is accepted as self-evident." -- Germanphilosopher Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860)
