This research proposal evaluates the data collection of cooperative networks and works to identify the underlying issues. The telecommunications industry continues to move forward and wireless networks are becoming faster and faster. Identifying common underlying issues involved in the movement of big data in cooperative networks can help to address certain concerns in the field and open the door for solution methods to be implemented. This proposed study is experimental and will look to collect data from real life big companies that have cooperative networks and use wireless sensor nodes as well. Collecting, analyzing, and comparing the different data collection issues in big networks will help the future of wireless technologies become more reliable and speedy.
