摘要
A low-cost wireless sensor network (WSN) solution with highly expandable super and simple nodes was developed The super node was designed as a sensing unit as well as a receiving terminal with low energy consumption The simple node was designed to serve as a cheaper alternative for large-scale deployment A 12-bit ADC inputs and DAC outputs were reserved for sensor boards to ease the sensing integration Vibration and thermal field tests of the Chi-Lu Bridge were conducted to evaluate the WSN's performance Integral acceleration, temperature and tilt sensing modules were constructed to simplify the task of long-term environmental monitoring on this bridge, while a star topology was used to avoid collisions and reduce power consumption We showed that, given sufficient power and additional power amplifier, the WSN can successfully be active for more than 7 days and satisfy the half bridge 120-meter transmission requirement The time and frequency responses of cables shocked by external force and temperature variations around cables m one day were recorded and analyzed Finally, guidelines on power characterization of the WSN platform and selection of acceleration sensors for structural health monitoring applications were given
