ABSTRACT
In this paper we present a high-density earthquake monitoring system using wireless sensor networks. For high-precision monitoring, we developed Pavenet OS, which is a hard-realtime operating system for sensor nodes, and acceleration sensor board. Sensor nodes of the system sample acceleration with less than 0.3 us jitter with Pavenet OS. The system provides earthquake engineering researchers the ability to measure vibrations of structures during earthquakes at less cost and higher node density than previous systems.

Connectivity preserving localized coverage algorithm for area monitoring using wireless sensor networks
Efficient network coverage and connectivity are the requisites for most Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) deployments, particularly those concerned with area monitoring. Due to the resource constraints of the sensor nodes, redundancy of coverage area must ...
Sensor scheduling for p-percent coverage in wireless sensor networks
We study sensor scheduling problems of p-percent coverage in this paper and propose two scheduling algorithms to prolong network lifetime due to the fact that for some applications full coverage is not necessary and different subareas of the monitored ...
Relay Node Placement in Wireless Sensor Networks
A wireless sensor network consists of many low-cost, low-power sensor nodes, which can perform sensing, simple computation, and transmission of sensed information. Long distance transmission by sensor nodes is not energy efficient since energy ...
