Traditional intrusion detection schemes cannot work for USN due to its peculiar characteristics for instance, limited energy and computation resources. In this paper we propose a detection and traceback mechanism for jamming and selective forwarding attacks on USN by observing MAC layer abnormalities. The proposed scheme is light weight and requires minimum computation to detect a DDoS attack on miniature sensor nodes.","PeriodicalId":225041,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE Sensors Applications Symposium","volume":"122 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124691782","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Of particular interest are the pitch links, which control the angle of attack of the rotor blades. Because the pitch link is in constant motion, instrumenting these critical components is challenging. Wires cannot be easily run to areas where strains need to be measured. Thus, a wireless system must be able to run for extended periods on internal or harvested power. This places low power consumption as one of the top priorities for all parts of the system. This paper describes recent efforts in our group to design, fabricate and test piezoresitive strain gauges for wireless strain sensing applications. Relevant design parameters will be discussed, and the gauge design presented. Strain gauge test results will show the fabricated gauges response to loads on the order of 10 muepsiv, while dissipating only 14 muW of power.","PeriodicalId":225041,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE Sensors Applications Symposium","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122564309","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Measurements on fresh apples were also made over a ten-week storage period. Data were taken on the external surfaces of the fruit and on tissue samples from the edible internal tissue. Soluble solids content (SSC), indicative of sweetness, was used for melons as the quality factor for correlation with permittivity. Dielectric constant and loss factor correlations with SSC were low, but a high correlation was obtained between the SSC and permittivity from a complex-plane plot of dielectric constant and loss factor, each divided by SSC. However, quality prediction from this relationship was not very high. Dielectric properties of apples were relatively constant during the ten-week storage period even though firmness of apple tissues decreased significantly over that period.","PeriodicalId":225041,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE Sensors Applications Symposium","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129184629","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
