Presented by Maha M. Dessokey Luster: Environmental Monitoring Using Wireless Sensor Networks
The Main Idea • Shrub are replacing grasslands and taking over Hog Island (and the world). • Where are grasslands, what happened to them? • Will we still have grass in X years? • LUSTER (Light Under Shrub Thickets for Environmental Research) system, a typical Environmental Wireless Sensor Network (EWSN), is to investigate the use of WSNs for monitoring the effects of sunlight on shrub thicket.
The Main Achievements • The main contributions of this work are: • LiteTDMA, a cluster-based, low-power TDMA MAC protocol that supports reliable communication, dynamic reconfiguration and node addition. • An overlaid, non-intrusive reliable storage layer that provides distributed non-volatile storage of sensor data for online query, or for later manual collection. • Hardware designs for spatially dense and reconfigurable light sensing
The Challenges • New hardware to resist harsh environment. • Deployment assurance. • Reliable collection of data. • Remote data uploading. • In-network data backup. • Robustness and self-healing.
An overview of Luster software architecture • Key Software Components • Sensor queries and Data extraction. • LiteTDMA MAC protocol. • Reliable distributed storage. • Delay tolerant networking. • Deployment time validation • Backend server and database. • Run time validation and Self-healing
Deployment Experience • Sensor nodes deployed in a cross, on a grid and along a tree branch • Solar panel, Antenna and Stargate
