A Survey on Proxy Mobile IPv6 Handover
2016
[EN] As wireless technologies have been improving in recent years, a mobility management mechanism is required to provide seamless and ubiquitous mobility for end users who are roaming among points of attachment in wireless networks. Thus, Mobile IPv6 was developed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) to support the mobility service. However, Mobile IPv6 is unable to fulfill the requirements of real-time applications, such as video streaming service and voice over IP service, due to its high handover (HO) latency. To address this problem, Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) has been introduced by the IETF. In PMIPv6, which is a network-based approach, the serving network controls mobility m…
A Two-End Traveling Wave Fault Location System for MV Cables
2019
In this paper, a new low-cost device is proposed for fault location in power distribution system. The device is part of a system that should include several units installed in couples at the two ends of medium voltage (MV) cable lines. Their low cost justifies a widespread installation of these devices, moreover other functionalities could be considered so as to enrich the potential of the system for MV cables monitoring and asset management. The system exploits a two-end traveling wave technique, low complexity, and low-cost solutions both for the analog front end as well as for the communication infrastructure. A LoRa network is indeed considered as wireless modulation technique perfectly…
A New Approach for the Reliability of Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks
2018
Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANET), a subset of Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs), is a wireless communication technology applied to transportation, referring to a set of smart vehicles used on the road. These vehicles provide communication services among one another (V2V) or with Road Side Infrastructure (V2I). The main benefits of VANET are enhancing road safety, reducing energy use and emissions, and giving information services. Reliability is one of the most critical issues related to VANET since the information transmitted is distributed in an open access environment. We focused in this paper, on the reliability of VANET as a function of reliable hardware and their functionality taking in…
Abrupt elastic-to-plastic transition in pentagonal nanowires under bending
2019
MD modeling and calculations were supported by Russian Science Foundation project grant 18-19-00645 “Adhesion of polymer-based soft materials: from liquid to solid”; mechanical testing and FEM simulations were supported by Estonian Research Council projects PUT1689 and PUT1372.
Enabling ubiquitous wireless sensor networks: A new fault tolerant RF architecture with perpetual electrical power based on 802.15.4 and RFID
2007
The wireless communications field is in continuous growth and revolution. The current trend toward the use of distributed wireless systems is due to these systems have demonstrated to be a good option due to its flexibility and power. In this line, nowadays there is an enormous demand of wireless connectivity for any industrial control applications, included critical systems. In this paper, we want to discuss possibilities and necessary developments to set up wireless communication for industrial applications in general and critical systems in particular. Furthermore, an abstract definition of a layered architecture for the development of intelligent and distributed control systems based on…
Lightweight Privacy-aware yet Accountable Secure Scheme for SM-SGCC communications in smart grid
2011
Abstract Smart grid is envisioned as a critical application of cyber-physical systems and of the internet of things. In the smart grid, smart meters equipped with wireless sensors can upload meter readings (data) to smart grid control and schedule centers via the advanced metering infrastructure to improve power delivery efficiency. However, data gathered in short intervals, such as 15 minutes, will expose customers' detailed daily activities (for example, when they get up and when they use oven) using nonintrusive appliance load monitoring. Thus, data must be hidden to protect customers' privacy. However, data accountability is still required for emergency responses or to trace back suspec…
SADmote: A Robust and Cost-Effective Device for Environmental Monitoring
2012
Time to deployment for wireless sensor networks could be reduced by using commercial sensor nodes. However, this may lead to suboptimal flexibility, power consumption and cost of the system. Our pilot deployment for precision agriculture and fruit growing research showed similar conclusions and outlined the design decisions leading to SADmote: a new sensor node for environmental monitoring. It was evaluated both in the lab and field, showing improved energy consumption over commercial solutions such as Tmote Sky and Waspmote.
CADWAN – A Control Architecture for Dense Wi-Fi Access Networks
2018
The growing demands of ubiquitous computing are leading towards the densification of wireless access networks. The challenges of high density deployments can be addressed by network- wide centralized control. To this end we propose CADWAN – a Control Architecture for efficient management of Dense Wi-Fi Access Networks. Its main advantages are: flexibility (it supports software- defined wireless networking), scalability (it uses a three-tier optimization framework), and extendibility (it exploits a unified control interface with support for heterogeneous devices). Furthermore, CADWAN is complementary to ongoing developments in IEEE 802.11, especially 802.11ax.
A Fast and Interactive Approach to Application Development on Wireless Sensor and Actuator Networks
2014
In Wireless Sensor and Actuator Networks (WSANs) sensor and actuator devices are connected through radio links to perform tasks in many different contexts. Conven- tionally, applications for WSANs are developed using traditional operating systems which application code is linked with at the end of a cross-compilation process. We propose instead an alternative approach for building applications on WSANs that is based on interactivity and does not require time consuming cross-compilation phases. In our development methodology, it is possible to define procedures and services according to the application target, simultaneously test them and reprogram the nodes interactively when needed, even a…
Stability of Positive Systems in WSN Gateway for IoT&IIoT
2020
Modern sensor networks work on the basis of intelligent sensors and actuators, their connection is carried out using conventional or specifically dedicated networks. The efficiency and smooth transmission of such a network is of great importance for the accuracy of measurements, sensor energy savings, or transmission speed. Ethernet in many networks is typically based on the TCP/IP protocol suite. Regardless of whether or not the network transmission is wired or wireless, it should always be reliable. TCP ensures transmission reliability through retransmissions, congestion control and flow control. But TPC is different in networks based on the UDP protocol. The most important here is the tr…
