“…If no 'hops' are required to transmit from the network coordinator to all the nodes, a simple beacon can be used to synchronize the network to within 30 μs . 82 Although synchronized, all the nodes in the network are delayed by an unknown amount from the coordinator's timing due to radio latency on the order of 10 ms. Multi-hop mesh networks require a more complex strategy such as the fl ooding time synchronization protocol 83 that quantifi es the stochastic delay in each link of the WSN.…”

A dichotomy exists in structural monitoring installations: those with sensors tethered to the data repository with wires, and those which use wireless communication to create a distributed network of sensors. This chapter discusses the impact of the paradigm shift from the wired monitoring systems traditionally used, to the wireless systems recently developed. This new technology is capable of achieving effective measurements on par with its predecessor, and introduces new possibilities of large-scale networks of hundreds of sensors made possible by low installation costs and scalable in-network data processing. Design and selection considerations covered in this chapter include network architecture, wireless node hardware, and distributed embedded software. Although rapidly maturing and reaching commercialization, research opportunities still exist in the fi elds of data and power management, which are discussed as the chapter culminates.

“…SHM can also be applied to marine vessels. Swartz et al (2010) present the implementation of a structural health monitoring system in an FSF-1 Sea Fighter, a relatively small naval vessel with an aluminum catamaran hull. Perez et al (2010) discuss general implementation of SHM in the U.S. Navy.…”
