Wireless Sensor Networks will revolutionize applications such as environmental monitoring, home automation, and logistics. We developed forest fire surveillance system. In this paper, Considering the fact that in Korea, during November to May, forest fires occur very frequently causing catastrophic damages on the valuable environment, Although exists other forest fire surveillance system such as surveillance camera tower, infrared ray sensor system and satellite system. Preexistence surveillance system can't real-time surveillance, monitoring, database and automatic alarm. But, forest fire surveillance system(FFSS) support above. In this paper, we describes a system development approach for a wireless sensor network based FFSS that is to be used to measure temperature and humidity as well as being fitted with a smoke detector. Such a device can be used as an early warning fire detection system and real-time surveillance in the area of a bush fire or endangered public infrastructure. Once the system has being development, a mesh network topology will be implemented with the chosen sensor node with the aim of developing a sophisticated mesh network.

Wireless Sensor Networks, especially supporting for surveillance service, are one of the core properties of network-centric warfare(NCW) that is a key factor of victory in future battlefields. Such a tactical surveillance sensor network must be designed not just for energy efficiency but for real-time requirements of emergency data transmission towards a control center. This paper proposes efficient clustering-based methods for supporting mobile sinks so that the network lifetime can be extended while emergency data can be served as well. We analyze the performance of the proposed scheme and compare it with other existing schemes through simulation via Qualnet 5.0.

In the present, Wireless Sensor Network(WSN) has been used for the purpose of the military operation with surveillance systems and for collecting useful information from the natural environment. Basically, low-power, easy deployment and low cost are the most important factors to be deployed for WSNs. Lots of researches have been studied to meet those requirements, especially on the node capacity and battery lifetime improvements. Recently, the study of wireless mesh networks applied into the surveillance systems has been proceeded as a solution of easy deployment. In this paper, we proposed large-scale intelligent multi-layer surveillance systems based on QoS assuring Wireless Mesh Networks and implemented them in the real testbed environment. The proposed system explains functions and operations for each subsystem as well as S/W and H/W architectures. Experimental results are shown for the implemented subsystems and the performance is satisfactory for the surveillance system. We can identify the possibility of the implemented multi-layer surveillance system to be used in practice.

무선 센서 네트워크에서 중요한 이슈 중 하나는 센서 노드의 에너지 절약이다. 그러나 군 정찰, 물체 추적과 같은 응용 분야에서는 지연 또한 중요한 문제이다. 이러한 응용에서 센서 노드는 물체가 감지되면 제한된 시간 내에서 많은 양의 데이터 패킷을 전송해야 한다. 그렇기 때문에 지연에 효율적인 데이터 전송 방법이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 응용에 적합한 MAC 프로토콜을 제안한다. 제안하는 MAC 프로토콜은 무선 센서 네트워크에서 군 감시 정찰을 위한 저 지연 데이터 전송 메커니즘이다. MAC 프로토콜에서, 수신 노드는 송신 노드에서 데이터 패킷을 수신한 후 두 번째 비콘 프레임을 보낸다. 이 두 번째 비콘 프레임을 사용하여 빠른 hop-to-hop 전송이 가능하다. 성능분석을 통해 제안된 MAC 프로토콜과 RI-MAC 프로토콜을 비교하였고, 제안된 방법이 지연에 더 효율적이다.

Surveillance has become one of promising application areas of wireless sensor networks which allow for pervasive monitoring of concerned environmental phenomena by facilitating context awareness through sensor fusion. Existing systems that depend on a postmortem context analysis of sensor data on a centralized server expose several shortcomings, including a single point of failure, wasteful energy consumption due to unnecessary data transfer as well as deficiency of scalability. As an opposite direction, this paper proposes an energy-efficient distributed context-aware surveillance in which sensor nodes in the wireless sensor network collaborate with neighbors in a distributed manner to analyze and aware surrounding context. We design and implement multi-modal sensor stations for use as sensor nodes in our wireless sensor network implementing our distributed context awareness. This paper presents an initial experimental performance result of our proposed system. Results show that multi-modal sensor performance of our sensor station, a key enabling factor for distributed context awareness, is comparable to each independent sensor setting. They also show that its initial performance of context-awareness is satisfactory for a set of introductory surveillance scenarios in the current interim stage of our ongoing research.

In this paper, we analyses of Key Management Protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks in Wireless Sensor Networks. Wireless sensor networks have a wide spectrum of civil military application that call for security, target surveillance in hostile environments. Typical sensors possess limited computation, energy, and memory resources; therefore the use of vastly resource consuming security mechanism is not possible. In this paper, we propose a cryptography key management protocol, which is based on identity based symmetric keying.

무선 센서네트워크에서 센서 커버리지와 네트워크 연결성 문제는 노드의 제한된 탐지거리와 통신거리로 인해 발생한다. 커버리지와 연결성 문제를 해결하기 위해 많은 연구가 진행되었지만 대부분의 연구가 무선 센서네트워크 배치에 영향을 주는 다양한 환경요소를 고려하고 있지 않기 때문에 실환경에 적용되는데 한계가 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 감시정찰 센서네트워크에서 지형, 식생, 기상 등 환경요소와 제한된 노드 수량을 고려하여 노드를 배치하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안방법은 감시정찰 센서네트워크 시스템의 설치 절차를 IPB분석을 통한 배치영향 요소파악, 센서 탐지범위 기반 센서노드 배치, 모니터링 장소 선정, RF 통신범위 기반 중계노드 배치와 같이 4단계로 구분하고, 감시정찰 센서네트워크 시스템 특정과 환경 영향요소를 고려하여 센서노드와 중계노드를 배치하는 것이다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안방법을 검증하였으며, 커버리지와 네트워크 연결성에서 성능이 향상됨을 확인하였다.

In this paper, we propose a low-power design strategy to minimize energy-consumption for surveillance and reconnaissance sensor networks. The sensor network consists of many different nodes with various operations such as target detection, packet relay, video monitoring, changing protocols, and etc. Each sensor node consists of sensing, computing, communication, and power components. These components are integrated on a single or multiple boards. Therefore, the power consumption of each component can be different on various operation types. First, we identified the list of components and measured power consumption for them from the first prototype nodes. Next, we focus on which components are the main sources of energy consumption. We propose many energy-efficient approaches to reduce energy consumption for each operation type.

The wireless sensor networks (WSNs) became a very essential tool in borders and military zones surveillance, for this reason specific applications have been developed. Surveillance is usually accomplished through the deployment of nodes in a random way providing heterogeneous topologies. However, the process of the identification of all nodes located on the network's outer edge is very long and energy-consuming. Before any other activities on such sensitive networks, we have to identify the border nodes by means of specific algorithms. In this paper, a solution is proposed to solve the problem of energy and time consumption in detecting border nodes by means of node selection. This mechanism is designed with several starter nodes in order to reduce time, number of exchanged packets and then, energy consumption. This method consists of three phases: the first one is to detect triggers which serve to start the mechanism of boundary nodes (BNs) detection, the second is to detect the whole border, and the third is to exclude each BN from the routing tables of all its neighbors so that it cannot be used for the routing.

미래전은 Sensor-to-Shooter 개념에 기반한 네트워크 중심전(NCW : Network Centric Warfare) 양상을 지닌다. 이러한 NCW의 핵심적인 요소들 중 하나로 무선 비디오 센서 네트워킹 기술이 군 감시정찰용으로 활발히 적용되고 있다. 감시정찰 센서 네트워크에서는 침입탐지 및 추적정보의 신뢰성 향상을 위하여 이미지 센서가 결합된 복합 센서가 사용되고 있으나 대용량의 네트워크 자원 및 에너지 소비를 요구하는 문제가 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서 자원 예약을 통한 이미지 데이터 전송 기법을 제안한다. 제안 기법은 네트워크 자원가용성을 고려하여 이미지 데이터 해상도 및 압축률 조정을 시도하는 동시에 다중 인터페이스의 적절한 선택을 통하여 안정적인 이미지 데이터 전송을 가능토록 한다. NS-3 시뮬레이션 기반의 성능분석을 통해서 제안기법의 전송 안정성 및 에너지 효율성의 증가를 확인하였다.
