Abstract:
This thesis deals with the development of a time synchronization algorithm for underwater sensor networks. The ease of deployment and maintenance of wireless networks leaded this research to the use of an acoustic communication sensor network to share a common base time between all nodes. Acoustic signals are well adapted to the underwater medium but experience very challenging impairments such as Doppler, extensive multi-paths and low transmission speed that can nevertheless be corrected at the reception side. Several acoustic waveforms can be invoked to transmit digital data through the un

Abstract:
Clock synchronization for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) has attracted lots of attention due to its importance for operations in WSNs. In traditional centralized clock synchronization algorithms, all the local information should be transmitted to a fusion center for processing, and the results need to be forwarded back to each individual sensor, thus resulting in a heavy burden on communication and computation in the network. In addition, it also lacks of adaptability to link failures and dynamic changes in the network topology, which greatly prevents their use in WSNs. Hence, in this thesis,

I present a time synchronization algorithm for wireless sensor networks that aims to conserve sensor battery power.

In multi-hop ad-hoc networks, a depleted sensor will drop information from all other sensors that route data through it, decreasing the physic

Abstract:
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are distributed networks comprising small sensing devices equipped with a processor, memory, power source, and often with the capability for short range wireless communication. These networks are used in various applications, and have created interest in WSN research and commercial uses, including industrial, scientific, household, military, medical and environmental domains. These initiatives have also been stimulated by the finalisation of the IEEE 802.15.4 standard, which defines the medium access control (MAC) and physical layer (PHY) for low-rate wireless p

Abstract:
This research has successfully developed a novel synthetic structural health monitoring system model that is cost-effective and flexible in sensing and data acquisition; and robust in the structural safety evaluation aspect for the purpose of long-term and frequent monitoring of large-scale civil infrastructure during their service lives. Not only did it establish a real-world structural monitoring test-bed right at the heart of QUT Gardens Point Campus but it can also facilitate reliable and prompt protection for any built infrastructure system as well as the user community involved.

Abstract:
Il presente elaborato affronta il problema del rilevamento dei danni strutturali nell’ambito dello Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) attraverso l’identificazione delle caratteristiche dinamiche delle strutture e con il solo utilizzo di vibrazioni ambientali. Questa procedura pertiene all’Operational Modal Analysis (OMA), campo dell’ingegneria che, tenendo conto della sola risposta del sistema senza conoscerne l’input, cattura i segnali nel dominio del tempo o della frequenza e identifica i parametri modali del sistema: frequenze naturali, indici di smorzamento e forme modali.

Abstract:
2011/2012<br>L’obiettivo di questa tesi è il monitoraggio di sistemi complessi a larga-scala. L’importanza di questo argomento è dovuto alla rinnovata enfasi data alle problematiche riguardanti la sicurezza e l’affidabilità dei sistemi, diventate requisiti fondamentali nella progettazione. Infatti, la crescente complessità dei moderni sistemi, dove le relazioni fra i diversi componenti, con il mondo esterno e con il fattore umano sono sempre più importanti, implica una crescente attenzione ai rischi e ai costi dovuti ai guasti e lo sviluppo di approcci nuovi per il controllo e il monitoraggio

Abstract:
This thesis is focused on a creating supporting drivers and algorithms for electrical motor control using CPU TriCore TC275 CA. The first part is devoted to processor description and selected peripherals, which are A/D converter, a timer for creating the PWM signals and the second timer for processing singnals from encoder. All drivers are tested on an aplication kit, which is equipped with TC275 CA processor. The second part analyzes the measurement quality of GMR sensor TLE5009. Special testbench was prepared for sin cos data capturing and for their comparison with precise encoder position m
