Design and implementation of remote monitoring system for supporting safe subways based on USN

Abstract

This paper describes the prototype model of remote monitoring system based on ubiquitous sensor network (USNs). We use the wireless sensor nodes which include the temperature, humidity, micro-dust, and a water level sensor are installed to manage the environment of subways. In this paper, we present the method of construction example of wireless sensor nodes, collecting data and transmitting the information between sensors. In addition, we construct a model of the web-based integrated system to manage effective information with the presented platform. This prototype system has advantage to effect of reducing the cabling fee, easier to the installation and repairs and enables to monitor by real-time. © 2008 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
