Under the advocacy of the international community, more and more research topics have been built around the ocean. This paper proposed an implementation scheme of marine wireless sensor network monitoring system based on LoRa and MQTT. Different from the traditional network architecture, the system was constructed by combining with two network forms, and according to their respective characteristics, the overall design followed the transition from LoRa to MQTT. We first used LoRa to interconnect the sensor nodes with the gateway, and on this basis, the collected data was sent to the server visualization platform through MQTT, the backend management server would continuously refresh the monitoring page. At the same time, the client could use a browser-based web application to directly access and call data for global maritime information monitoring. In the future, we will further improve the system and optimize the algorithm, to achieve more dimensions and deeper exploration of the underwater world.

A new class of sensing paradigm known as lab-onskin where stretchable and flexible smart sensor devices are integrated into the skin, provides direct monitoring and diagnostic interfaces to the body. Distributed lab-on-skin wireless sensors have the ability to provide continuous long term assessment of the skin health. This paper proposes a distributed skin health monitoring system using a wireless body area network. The system is responsive to the dynamic changes in the skin health, and remotely reports on the same. The proposed algorithm detects the abnormal skin and creates an energy efficient data aggregation tree covering the affected area while putting the unnecessary sensors to sleep mode. The algorithm responds to the changing conditions of the skin by dynamically adapting the size and shape of the monitoring trees to that of the abnormal skin areas thus providing a comprehensive monitoring. Simulation results demonstrate the application and utility of the proposed algorithm for changing wound shapes and sizes.
To minimize enormous havoc from disasters, permanent environment monitoring is necessarily required. Thus we propose a novel energy management protocol for energy harvesting wireless sensor networks (EH-WSNs), named the adaptive sensor node management protocol (ASMP). The proposed protocol makes system components to systematically control their performance to conserve the energy. Through this protocol, sensor nodes autonomously activate an additional energy conservation algorithm. ASMP embeds three sampling algorithms. For the optimized environment sampling, we proposed the adaptive sampling algorithm for monitoring (ASA-m). ASA-m estimates the expected time period to occur meaningful change. The meaningful change refers to the distance between two target data for the monitoring QoS. Therefore, ASA-m merely gathers the data the system demands. The continuous adaptive sampling algorithm (CASA) solves the problem to be continuously decreasing energy despite of ASA-m. When the monitored environment shows a linear trend property, the sensor node in CASA rests a sampling process, and the server generates predicted data at the estimated time slot. For guaranteeing the self-sustainability, ASMP uses the recoverable adaptive sampling algorithm (RASA). RASA makes consumed energy smaller than harvested energy by utilizing the predicted data. RASA recharges the energy of the sensor node. Through this method, ASMP achieves both energy conservation and service quality.
Prolonging the network lifetime is a major consideration in many Internet of Things applications. In this paper, we study maximizing the network lifetime of an energy-harvesting LoRa network. Such a network is characterized by heterogeneous recharging capabilities across the nodes that is not taken into account in existing work. We propose a link-layer protocol to achieve a long-lived LoRa network which dynamically enables the nodes with depleting batteries to exploit the superfluous energy of the neighboring nodes with affluent batteries by letting a depleting node offload its packets to an affluent node. By exploiting the LoRas capability of adjusting multiple transmission parameters, we enable low-cost offloading by depleting nodes instead of high-cost direct forwarding. Such offloading requires synchronization of wake-up times as well as transmission parameters between the two nodes which also need to be selected dynamically. The proposed protocol addresses these challenges and prolongs the lifetime of a LoRa network through three novel techniques. (1) We propose a lightweight medium access control protocol for peer-to-peer communication to enable packet offloading which circumvents the synchronization overhead between the two nodes. (2) We propose an intuitive heuristic method for effective parameter selections for different modes (conventional vs. offloading). (3) We analyze the energy overhead of offloading and, based on it, the protocol dynamically selects affluent and depleting nodes while ensuring that an affluent node is not overwhelmed by the depleting ones. Simulations in NS-3 as well as real experiments show that our protocol can increase the network lifetime up to $4$ times while maintaining the same throughput compared to traditional LoRa network.
Wireless Sensor Network holds a pivotal position and gained a lot of attention from researchers in recent years. Sensor nodes have been used in vast applications such as environment monitoring, security purpose applications, and target tracking. This latter comprises of detection and monitoring of the target movement. In this paper, we explore in detail well-known target tracking techniques. The existing techniques are evaluated using metrics such as network topology, target recovery, energy efficiency, and security. We also discuss some of the challenges that affect the performance of tracking schemes. Furthermore, a thorough analysis is performed on existing techniques and future directions are explored.
Wireless sensor/actuator networks (WSANs) are emerging as a new generation of sensor networks. Serving as the backbone of control applications, WSANs will enable an unprecedented degree of distributed and mobile control. However, the unreliability of wireless communications and the real-time requirements of control applications raise great challenges for WSAN design. With emphasis on the reliability issue, this paper presents an application-level design methodology for WSANs in mobile control applications. The solution is generic in that it is independent of the underlying platforms, environment, control system models, and controller design. To capture the link quality characteristics in terms of packet loss rate, experiments are conducted on a real WSAN system. From the experimental observations, a simple yet efficient method is proposed to deal with unpredictable packet loss on actuator nodes. Trace-based simulations give promising results, which demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
