Abstract
This chapter looks into the technical features of
state-of-the-art wireless sensors networks for
environmental monitoring. Technology advances in
low-power and wireless devices have made the deployment
of those networks more and more affordable. In addition,
wireless sensor networks have become more flexible and
adaptable to a wide range of situations. Hence, a
framework for their correct implementation will be
provided. Then, one specific application about real-time
environmental monitoring in support of a model-based
predictive control system installed in a metro station
will be described. In these applications, filtering,
resampling, and post-processing functions must be
developed, in order to convert raw data into a dataset
arranged in the right format, so that it can inform the
algorithms of the control system about the current state
of the domain under control. Finally, the whole
architecture of the model-based predictive control and
its final performances will be reported.
