| Abstract |
This The new technology for sensors and wireless sensor networks has led to various fields of application. Environmental parameters monitoring, safety of persons and property, traffic control or some analyses into buildings to determine the cause of various problems, are some examples that highlights the ability of wireless sensors network to be deployed on a very short term basis. Wireless sensors can be placed on critical location or in critical pieces of building structure to detect, identify and diagnose faults. The local network sensor is generally an electronic embedded system, which is capable to process data received from a various type of sensors like: thermal, seismic, infrared, ultrasonic or magnetic. An advanced type of network sensor will not only store or send the acquired data, it will manage also the links to neighboring nodes, finding the best routes for data packets. Location for sensors can be obtained from a GPS or using a local positioning algorithm. All of this information's are vital to manage efficiently an emergency situation. |
