Design considerations for an embedded wireless sensor network (WSN) for monitoring civil infrastructure are presented. Nodes capable of local signal processing mitigate the volume of data for wireless transmission. Dual battery and harvested solar power sources provide the energy for the added computation. A low-drop-out-regulator (LDO) recharger with high-temperature cutoff is key to the system being...
Energy harvesting, combined with wireless sensors, could greatly improve our ability to monitor and maintain critical structures. This paper reports on the development of an integrated structural health monitoring and reporting (SHMR) system for use on Navy aircraft. Our goal was to develop and test a versatile, fully programmable SHMR system, designed to synchronize and record data from a range of...
The brief of the Rolls-Royce University Technology Centre in Control and Systems Engineering at the University of Sheffield's is to perform research and development of engine control and monitoring systems. Over recent years work has been investigating and developing the key components to provide a complete approach to remote asset monitoring, from local networks of wireless sensors gathering information...
