,WSNs are especial6 -ecause7 3the are %ireless5 a %ireless net%or& is 8at in the sense that each node can

access to all the nodes under its communication range.

Tree

!ach node is in a di/erent level and each node onl cancommunicate %ith its parent and children

A pro-lem is that if one node fails6 its descendants can do it too6unless the net%or& recompose automaticall

9ther pro-lem is the -ottlenec&s creation6 speciall close to the-ase station.
