Design and Retrofit of Sensor Networks in Process Plants
نویسنده
چکیده
A novel procedure to find cost-optimal sensor networks is proposed. Cost is minimized subject to qualibing constraints that are related to certain requirements of data reconciliation. One basic qualibing constraint is a desired level of precision of reconciled values for a selected set of variables. Since precision requirements lead to multiple solutions, other qualifying constraints are proposed. These constraints are availability, resilience, and error detectability. Definitions for these terms are given and their impact on the results is presented.

متن کاملA Deterministic Multiple Key Space Scheme for Wireless Sensor Networks via Combinatorial Designs
The establishing of a pairwise key between two nodes for encryption in a wireless sensor network is a challenging issue. To do this, we propose a new deterministic key pre-distribution scheme which has modified the multiple key space scheme (MKSS). In the MKSS, the authors define two random parameters to make better resilience than existing schemes. Instead of a random selection of these parame...
