Enabling Technology • Sensors • Wireless • Micro-fabrication and integration • Embedded systems
What a Sensor Net Can Do • Monitoring • People • Vehicles • Animals • Environment • Fabs • Supply chains • …
Psend(Nr) Psend(r) … Preceive r Nr Advantages of Sensornet • Energy advantage • Short-range communication • Trade-off: # of hops
Advantages of Sensor Net • Detection advantage • More sensors, shorter distance to the target • Better signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)
Advantages of Sensor Net • Structure advantage • Robustness due to redundancy • In-network processing
Disadvantage • Small sensors • Limited on: • Power • Communication range & bandwidth • Computation power • Memory
Power • Short-range communication • On-demand sensory • Short duty cycle • More computing, less communication • Field charging
Communication, Computation and Memory • Scalability • In-network processing or aggregation • Efficient algorithms • Less computing cycles • Less storage requirement
Satellite and Sensor Net • Satellite • Global view • Sensor net • Detailed view
Applications • Military battlefield awareness • Rapid deployment • Monitoring battlefield or bases

Agriculture Water resource management
Applications • Asset and warehouse management • Tracking assets • With RFID
Applications • Industrial process control • Monitoring manufacturing processes • Monitoring equipments, such as motors, pipes • Monitoring servers • Monitoring any irregular situations and failures
Applications • Building monitoring and control • Low wiring cost • Cut down energy cost • Air control • Biological agents or chemical pollutants
Applications • Security and surveillance • Airports • Subways • Nuclear power plants
Applications • Health care • Monitoring vital signs of patients • In-home elder care: monitoring subtler behaviors of an elders
Applications • Automotive • Vehicle-centric sensor net • Robot with sensors • Non-traditional • Mobile • Possible long distance
Examples • Great Duck Island • 190 sensors monitor the nesting petrels • Avoid to disturb the bird
Examples • BP, an oil and gas giant • Losing track of 900 railcars in 2003 • Solution: to fit each railcar with a network of sensors --- that not only track where the railcars is at all times, but can monitor weight, internal temperature, etc.
Examples • BP • Monitoring customers’ liquefied petroleum gas fuel tanks • 25% improvement in efficiency • The tanks have gauges but customer would forget to look at them until it was too late
Examples • BP • Tracking lone workers • To avoid hazardous areas where they may be at risk
Examples • Intel • Now, all equipments are manually inspected once a quarter, found 80% of problems • With sensor net, 95% of the problems can be found
Vineyards BC Examples • In Pickberry vineyard, a sensor net monitors: • soil moisture • rainfall • wind velocity and direction
Trend of Sensor Net Research • Application-driven • Most basics are researched • New topics from real-world applications
