Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) consist of various homogeneous or heterogeneous sensor nodes deployed over an area. The most challenging issue in wireless sensor network research is its routing protocols as the sensors have limited power so protocols should be like it consumes less energy during active mode. To increase lifetime of a sensor network is to design protocols in such a way that it m...

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...

This paper proposes the controlling of Induction motor drives.Because of low maintenance and robustness, induction motors have many applications in industries. Speed control of induction motor is more important to achieve maximum torque and efficiency. Various control techniques such as scalar control, vector control, Sensor-less control are used. These Schemes suffers from parameter sensitivit...

Simulation is an important tool to study and analyze sensor networks. Prior work in sensor network simulation focuses on homogeneous devices. In this paper, we present a system that performs scalable and accurate simulation of a network of heterogeneous sensor devices, including both Stargate intermediate level devices and mote devices. We study accuracy, performance, and scalability of our sys...

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 ...

In this paper we describe an implementation and modeling of a novel fatigue monitoring sensor based on integration of piezoelectric transduction with floating gate avalanche injection. The miniaturized sensor enables continuous battery-less monitoring and failure predictions of biomechanical implants. Measured results from a fabricated prototype in a 0.5μm CMOS process demonstrate excellent agr...

This paper presents localization in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) in presence of obstacles using a mobile anchor. The proposed scheme uses a mobile anchor, which finds its location via global positioning system (GPS). The mobile anchor broadcasts its coordinate while it navigates through sensing region. The static sensor nodes receive beacon messages when the mobile anchor and sensor nodes ha...

This work demonstrates the variability in performance between SnO(2) thick film gas sensors prepared using two types of film deposition methods. SnO(2) powders were deposited on sensor platforms with and without the use of binders. Three commonly utilized binder recipes were investigated, and a new binder-less deposition procedure was developed and characterized. The binder recipes yielded sens...

This paper presents design and assembly of mixed electronic circuitry for measured signal processing of the capacitive difference pressure sensor, as well as analysis of the obtained results. The smart pressure sensor provides values of measured pressure via 4 20 mA current loop output. The loop current is also used for sensor circuitry supplying. This means that current consumption of the whol...
