Abstract
Miniaturized electronic components, improvements in Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS), have made realization of biosensors possible. Providing interconnectivity to these devices has made even more applications possible. Today biosensors are being used in many applications ranging from detectıon of biological agents to soil monitoring. Among others, health applications are likely to benefit most from networked biosensors. Since standalone sensors like biosensors have certain limitations, the network providing interconnectivity to these devices needs to be selected carefully. In this paper we would like to review different networks used for connecting biosensors pointing out popular applications for each one.
