A Structure of Large Scale WSN Based Safety Monitoring System for Natural Gas Industry

Abstract:

With the rapidly development of natural gas production, storage and transportation, the requirement for safety monitoring on natural gas industry are continuously increasing. This paper analyzes the application of WSN (wireless sensor network) in natural gas industry safety monitoring, and proposes a layered structure for large scale WSN based safety monitoring system, which can be used in collecting various kinds of safety information in natural gas industry, and sending them to surveillance center for data analyzing and early warning of abnormal situation. In the structure, we discuss the deployment of sensor nodes, sink nodes and e-sink nodes, and proposed the layered data fusion model and query model.
