Dear Sanjay,

As written by Fateh Boutekkouk

The relation is how efficiently you can design the wireless infrastructure so to justify the specific challenges (like low power consumption, low error rates, high spectral efficiency or asynchronous access etc.) posed by the wireless sensor networks.

First, be comfortable with the specific requirements of WSNs (Challenges), then design the waveform to be transmitted or multiple access to be use according to the above challenges. (Wireless Communication)

Yes, WSN is a part of wireless communication.

Where, WSN also an integrated part of IOT.

Dear Sanjay

As the name suggest WSN is a network of sensors connected over wireless media. The role of sensor is to sense/collect the information. This information is to be transmitted to the central node, so that some inference can be made using this. Wireless communication comes in to picture for the transfer of this information from the sensor nodes to the central node.

So, as far as WSN is concerned wireless communication is a part of WSN.

In a WSN the sensors communicate to one another (and to the gateway/sinknode) wirelessly. The topic of wireless communication in itself is very extensive.

Yes, WSN is part of Wireless Communication? However, WSN deals with ultra low power sensor devices.
