Wireless Sensor Network for Situation Awareness in Coal Mining

June 2018 · Journal of Computational and Theoretical Nanoscience

B Ramesh · K. Panduranga Vittal

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are the networks with many distributed sensors which have limited processing capability with
wireless connectivity. The data from sensor network helps to monitor the environmental parameters. WSNs has been utilized in many
fields such as coal mine safety monitoring, agriculture management, and also in vehicle monitoring. In this paper, sensor data

The phenomenon that occurs in the precipitous hills and affects animate and inanimate settlements with the down slope faction of soil
and rock along with unrefined materials is landslide. It is intractable type of geological phenomenon which results under the force of
gravity with exgregious attack. Real time prediction and monitoring of landslides is essential for one and all living and ... [Show full

Extensive area of Japan is subjected to threats of potential landslides as roughly 70 percent of Japan consists of a steep mountainous
terrain and moreover numerous artificial hill slopes are developed in residential areas. While various types of structural counter
measures have been developed and successfully implemented in Japan, significant numbers of areas remain unprotected. Hence, ...
