Abstract

The scale of weather monitoring is limited by the cost of the automatic weather stations (AWS), which is mainly the cost of high precision instruments and long-distance wireless telecommunication equipments. We propose a wireless sensor network (WSN) based AWS, which takes advantage of the low-cost, real-time and infrastructure-free characteristics of WSN [1]. We can therefore extend the scale of weather monitoring without increasing the number of telecommunication equipments. This WSN-based AWS is able to cover a plane and gather multiple sets of weather measurements in real-time at a better data resolution.

Multi-factor and Distributed Clustering Routing Protocol in Wireless Sensor Networks

One of important issues in wireless sensor networks is how to effectively use the limited node energy to prolong the lifetime of the networks. Clustering is a promising approach in wireless sensor networks, which can increase the network lifetime and ...
Non-real Time Data Transmission Mechanism with Mobile Sink in Cluster-Based Wireless Sensor Networks
NBIS '13: Proceedings of the 2013 16th International Conference on Network-Based Information Systems

In traditional wireless sensor networks, the sensed data will be forwarded to sink by multi-hop, so that the hot spot problem will happen on the nodes near the sink. The power consumption of these nodes is higher than others, these nodes will be dead ...
Efficient Placement and Dispatch of Sensors in a Wireless Sensor Network

Sensor deployment is a critical issue because it affects the cost and detection capability of a wireless sensor network. In this work, we consider two related deployment problems: sensor placement and sensor dispatch. The former asks how to place the ...
