Environmental sensors and networks of sensors

Design and evaluation of two distributed methods for sensors placement in Wireless Sensor Networks

Adequate coverage is one of the main problems for distributed wireless sensor networks and The effectiveness of that highly depends on the sensor deployment scheme. Given a finite number of sensors, optimizing the sensor deployment will provide sufficient sensor coverage and save power of sensors for movement to target location to adequate coverage. In this paper, we apply fuzzy logic system to...

Understanding Human Body Language from Environmental Sensors and Body Sensors

I investigate Human body language. There is plenty of evidence both from anthropology and psychology that people communicate very much with their body. For this purpose I use visual sensors in the environment to capture the body motion and I have a couple of students who are trying to interpret the motion in this body language. We use the teleimmersive environment since we can communicate local...

Representing a Model for Improving Connectivity and Power Dissipation in Wireless Networks Using Mobile Sensors

Wireless sensor networks are often located in areas where access to them is difficult or dangerous. Today, in wireless sensor networks, cluster-based routing protocols by dividing sensor nodes into distinct clusters and selecting local head-clusters to combine and send information of each cluster to the base station and balanced energy consumption by network nodes, get the best performance ...
