Design of Robust Sensor Nodes to Monitor Carbon Monoxide and Natural Gas Levels

Abstract
In the present scenario, effective real time pollution monitoring equipments require large number of nodes (preferably gt;50) which are capable of interaction and hence provide reliable information. Increasing the number of sensors increases the possibility of determining the exact amount of gas levels in the surrounding environment. Hence the sensor nodes and the wireless network should together work cohesively to determine the correct levels of the gas desired to be monitored. Also it is important that the sensor node has low power consumption and is robust in extreme climatic conditions. Our main focus is to develop many such sensor nodes and develop a simple protocol to effectively use them. In this paper we have only considered the design of one such node which can sense the levels of Carbon Monoxide, and hence a solid-state semiconductor Carbon Monoxide gas sensor is used. The paper describes the parameters like robustness, low power requirements and a highly efficient mode of communication to design a sensor node.
