This paper presents research work related to the development of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) gathering environmental data from the surface of the Moon. Data aggregation algorithms are applied to reduce the amount of the multi-sensor data collected by the WSN, which are to be sent to a Moon orbiter and later to Earth. A particular issue that is of utmost importance to space applications is energy...
The SWIPE (Space Wireless Sensor Networks for Planetary Exploration) project uses Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) to characterise the surface of the Moon. The envisaged scenario is that hundreds of small wireless sensor nodes dropped onto the Moon surface will collect scientific measurements. An ad-hoc WSN connecting these nodes will propagate the measurement data to sink nodes for uploading to a lunar...
