Abstract
An environment monitoring sensor network typically embeds in an unattended environment. Users demand long-lifetime healthy systems to continuously run in harsh environments and want to change the system configurations on the fly. The robustness, configurability, fault detection and recovery and situation awareness have become key system design challenges, because of the frequent damages to less-protected sensors and the demand of real-time high-fidelity data. In this thesis, a smart and robust sensing component design with configurable sensing, situation awareness and robust time synchronization components will be presented. The smart sensing component have been implemented and tested in an indoor testbed of sixteen prototype sensor nodes for volcano monitoring. The proposed architecture and framework can be applied to other wireless sensor network applications.
