A feasibility analysis on the use of ultrasonic multihop communications for E-health applications

2017

Rise in population aging as well as diffusion of chronic diseases and health consciousness require constant monitoring of health conditions but also lead to increasing costs for the governments. Body Area Networks represent the next frontier in health care and are envisaged as the natural choice to provide detailed and updated information on health status to prevent health risks and diseases. However if, on the one hand, a large research effort has been devoted so far to the investigation of BAN communications on and around the body, on the other hand intra-BAN communications are still a scarcely explored area because of the difficulties and risks in successfully propagating signals inside …

An experimental testbed of an Internet of Underwater Things

2020

A number of critical features have so far slowed down the realization of an Internet of Underwater Things. The most relevant of these aspects are related to the unreliability of the communication channel, the long propagation delay and the effect of severe multi-path and fading. This paper presents the design and development of a hybrid underwater-terrestrial IoT where different underwater sensors collect heterogeneous data and use marine acoustic modems to send information to a gateway device; this is able to set up a long distance link, implemented through a LoRaWAN connection, to forward data to a remote cloud for further processing. Performance of this system has been tested in a real s…

Exploiting state information to support QoS in Software-Defined WSNs

2016

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is a promising paradigm initially proposed for the wired networks which has the potential to change the way in which networks are designed and managed. Recently, its use has been extended to wireless infrastructure-less networks such as ad-hoc and wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we take inspiration from our previous work where a scheme that extends the SDN paradigm to WSNs - called SDN-WISE - was proposed. Differently from OpenFlow, SDN-WISE is stateful; accordingly in this paper we investigate how state can be used to support different levels of QoS in WSNs. In fact, state can be used to represent the level of congestion of a node and rules can be…

Towards a software-defined Network Operating System for the IoT

2015

The heterogeneity characterizing the Internet of Things (IoT) landscape can be addressed by leveraging network operating systems (NOS)s. Current NOS solutions have been developed for traditional infrastructured networks: they do not take the specific features of fundamental IoT components such as wireless sensor and actuator networks into account. Accordingly, in this paper an innovative integrated network operating system for the IoT which is obtained as the evolution of the Open Network Operating System (ONOS) is proposed. This has been appropriately extended to enhance the recently proposed SDN-WISE platform for supporting SDN in wireless sensor networks and let it interact with standard…
