Wireless Communications Enlargement: A Review of Advancement in Technologies

Abstract

This review paper is intended to serve as a summary review of the collective experience; the structural engineering community has gained from the use of wireless sensors and sensor networks for monitoring physical parameter. A benefit of wireless structural monitoring systems is that they are inexpensive to install because extensive wiring is no longer required between sensors and the data acquisition system.The characteristics of various sensors for monitoring applications have been studied. The requirements of the sensor for making a smart sensor network have been investigated and found out that, ZigBee is most efficient as compared to all others and in all aspects discussed in paper
