Abstract
The feasibility of reliable wireless data transmissions
over distances of several metres through dense materials
was investigated within a trial project on wireless
monitoring systems. By means of the project it could be
shown that specially developed wireless sender units were
able to transmit a signal provided by a temperature
sensor through rock mass, compacted bentonite and
reinforced concrete in the range of decimetres to several
metres. Latest developments by VTT in the field of
wireless sensor and network systems offer a large
potential for sensor-based performance and condition
monitoring of (infra)structures.
