Mobile Sensor Network Architecture for Environmental Monitoring

Fabrizio Ciancetta, Biagio D’Apice, Carmine Landi, Alfredo Pelvio
Abstract:
Environmental sensors are developed and used for environmental assessment such as electromagnetic field, thermal and air environments. The specified items for the thermal environmental assessment are temperature, humidity, and air flowing rate and so on, and the items for air environmental assessment include all kinds of gas sensor. The main goal of this paper is to present an implementation of an environmental mobile sensor for distributed measurement system based on the web service approach. The proposed system is based on a freeware widely utilized technology, the Gnutella network, to route and share information adopting a low-cost hardware architecture. This solution offers great possibility in terms of fast and easy access to measured data, of integration of large complex Web sensor network, of realization of flexible custom applications and of service reusability. The goal is to give the possibility to every client and every developer to obtain only the needed information or to develop new measurement application starting with different information also coming from different sensors.
