Smart Wireless Sensor Networks and Biometric Authentication for Real Time Traffic Light Junctions Management
2013
The main challenge of intelligent transportation systems (ITS) is to deal with ‘real-time’ information to improve vehicular traffic management. Road data can be processed and used for dynamic traffic light management in order to reduce waiting times in queues. This paper proposes an innovative distributed architecture based on a wireless sensor network (WSN) with a network coordinator providing remote and ubiquitous authentication module for managing unexpected events. The architecture is completed by a dynamic module for street priority management depending on traffic rate. Many experimental trials have been carried out considering three different levels of traffic intensity to prove the e…
A Computationally Efficient Online/Offline Signature Scheme for Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks
2022
Underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) have emerged as the most widely used wireless network infrastructure in many applications. Sensing nodes are frequently deployed in hostile aquatic environments in order to collect data on resources that are severely limited in terms of transmission time and bandwidth. Since underwater information is very sensitive and unique, the authentication of users is very important to access the data and information. UWSNs have unique communication and computation needs that are not met by the existing digital signature techniques. As a result, a lightweight signature scheme is required to meet the communication and computation requirements. In this researc…
A system to monitor the main ambient parameters in the vineyard with wireless sensors
2009
Wireless technologies have been under rapid development during recent years but applications of wireless sensors in agriculture and food industry are still rare. The aim of this study is to monitor the micro-climate of the grapevine in order to monitor the adversities of the spring period reducing the operating costs of the vineyard and increasing the quality of grapes. At this purpose a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) was used. Furthermore, a comparison was performed between the data measured by the wireless sensors and the data provided by the fixed meteorological station of the Regione Siciliana (SIAS).

Coverage study of a sustainable IoT system for industrial applications
2022
Los dispositivos del Internet de las Cosas (IoT) son muy útiles para monitorizar información en escenarios industriales incluso en zonas que tienen difícil acceso a través de las conexiones tradicionales. Las comunicaciones inalámbricas fiables pueden ser un reto en entornos industriales, donde la señal de comunicaciones es a menudo bloqueada debido a la presencia de maquinaria industrial, con posibles bloqueos intermitentes y/o impredecibles. Este artículo evalúa las características de cobertura de un despliegue sostenible y de bajo coste de dispositivos IoT para monitorizar una instalación industrial dedicada al diseño y montaje de sistemas de automatización para la industria alimentaria.…
