Energy-efficient wireless sensor network for nuclear radiation detection

Abstract: This work presents a design for nuclear radiation detection and monitoring system in a nuclear facility based on wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Energy efficiency is a critical factor in designing WSNs where a sensor node is small with limited power resources. A reliable WSN must be energy efficient to maximize its lifetime. Media access control (MAC) protocols are essential for the energy-efficiency objectives of WSNs as they directly control the most energy consuming part of a sensor node communications ove… Show more

“…3) Duty cycle: The ratio between the active mode interval and the whole frame defined the sensor node's duty cycle. Its minimum value results in more power conservation in the sensor node [7]. The duty-cycle is calculated for the TDMA-MAC protocol as the ratio between the total numbers of timeslots engaged with communication to the schedule length.…”

“…Although many WSN applications are beneficial, limited resources of WSN cause several challenges that need to be addressed for efficient performance. Energy consumption is the main problem as sensors are usually battery-powered [7], [8]. Minimizing communication latency is a fundamental objective of the alarm-driven WSNs applications or disaster early warning applications [9] - [13].…”

“…The combination of the capabilities of sensing/actuating, computation, and communication allow WSN to be a promising general-purpose technology for numerous applications. Moreover, WSNs have been successfully applied to a wide range of applications, such as environmental and habitat monitoring, smart houses, traffic monitoring, battlefield surveillance, industrial automation, and healthcare as well as nuclear practices ((Acampora et al, 2013), (Gomaa et al, 2014), (Elrefaei et al, 2019)).…”
