WVS connects wireless network access points to surveillance equipment, such as cameras, storage devices, and video recorders. This helps in efficient monitoring from a remote location and negates the need for investment in the setting up of network infrastructure. WVS includes components such as digital cameras, mesh network nodes, gateway nodes, backhaul units, servers, and monitoring stations (equipped with surveillance). WVS provides security to critical infrastructure, such as airports and cities, without any additional wiring and maintenance costs. It reduces the installation cost and the cost of hiring professionals to do that work. The increase in geographically dispersed infrastructure has necessitated the need for centralized supervision for security. This has resulted in greater usage of WVS,which acts as an alternative to expensive wired infrastructure.
