The Use of WSNs for Structural Health Monitoring

Abstract

The routing topology, i.e., the path to be followed by the information transmitted by each node to reach the base and transmit it to the user, is determinant for the operation of the network. There are different topologies-star, tree, mesh, etc. that are suitable for each type of application. Once the data is received through the gateway, the information must be stored, processed, analyzed and presented to the user in the most appropriate way, and sometimes it is very important that this is done in real time.
