REMOTE MONITORING SYSTEM FOR IMPEDANCE SPECTROSCOPY USING WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORK
Abstract
The architecture of a miniaturized impedance analyser with wireless communication module for remote Impedance Spectroscopy (IS) of anticorrosion coatings on difficult-to-reach objects (e.g. on the steel construction of the bridge) is described in this paper. Some practical aspects of implementation of a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) are also discussed. A low scale, middle range, WSN network composed of a Base Station (BS) with a Personal Computer (PC) and nodes with impedance analysers fit with Atmel ZigBee modules was simulated in MATLAB. Effectiveness of different routing protocols in an ad-hoc WSN was studied.
