Latency based device fingerprinting in a low-power industrial wireless sensor networkKruger, Carel Phillip January 2021 (has links)
Security is a key challenge for any IIoT network and more so for constrained IWSN deployments.
Novel methods are thus required to enhance security, taking into consideration the lossy and low power
nature of the IWSN. The use of ICMP packets is proposed as a method to generate fingerprinting
information for IWSN devices. The ICMP based method uses the round-trip time information in the
ICMP header as a fingerprinting metric. The results showed that the effect of the physical layer can be
averaged out of the measurement if enough samples are available. A linear relationship was found
between hop count and round-trip time for a static network which can be used in the design phase of the
IWSN network or alternatively as a method to fingerprint routing anomalies in real-time. The ICMP
method was able to differentiate between devices from different vendors, but unable to fingerprint
devices from the same vendor due to physical layer interference. The work shows that fingerprinting
in an IWSN using the ICMP method is possible if the timing delta under investigation is an order
of magnitude larger than the timing variation introduced by the physical layer while maintaining a
reasonable signal-to-noise ratio. / Dissertation (MEng (Computer Engineering))--University of Pretoria, 2021. / Electrical, Electronic and Computer Engineering / MEng (Computer Engineering) / Unrestricted

Energy Aware Routing Schemes in Solar PoweredWireless Sensor NetworksDehwah, Ahmad H. 10 1900 (has links)
Wireless sensor networks enable inexpensive distributed monitoring systems that are
the backbone of smart cities. In this dissertation, we are interested in wireless sensor networks
for traffic monitoring and an emergency flood detection to improve the safety of
future cities. To achieve real-time traffic monitoring and emergency flood detection, the
system has to be continually operational. Accordingly, an energy source is needed to ensure
energy availability at all times. The sun provides for the most inexpensive source of
energy, and therefore the energy is provided here by a solar panel working in conjunction
with a rechargeable battery. Unlike batteries, solar energy fluctuates spatially and temporally
due to the panel orientation, seasonal variation and node location, particularly in cities
where buildings cast shadows. Especially, it becomes scarce whenever floods are likely to
occur, as the weather tends to be cloudy at such times when the emergency detection system
is most needed. These considerations lead to the need for the optimization of the energy of
the sensor network, to maximize its sensing performance. In this dissertation, we address
the challenges associated with long term outdoor deployments along with providing some
solutions to overcome part of these challenges. We then introduce the energy optimization
problem, as a distributed greedy approach. Motivated by the flood sensing application, our
objective is to maximize the energy margin in the solar powered network at the onset of the
high rain event, to maximize the network lifetime. The decentralized scheme will achieve
this by optimizing the energy over a time horizon T, taking into account the available and
predicted energy over the entire routing path. Having a good energy forecasting scheme
can significantly enhance the energy optimization in WSN. Thus, this dissertation proposes
a new energy forecasting scheme that is compatible with the platform’s capabilities.
This proposed prediction scheme was tested on real data and compared with state-of-theart
forecasting schemes on on-node WSN platforms. Finally, to establish the relevance of
the aforementioned schemes beyond theoretical formulations and simulations, all proposed
protocols and schemes are subjected to hardware implementation.

Sustainable communicating materialsMustakhova, Diana January 2023 (has links)
A growing number of smart items are entering our daily lives as the Internet of Things becomes increasingly prevalent. ICT device miniaturization introduces a brand-new material type called Communicating Material (CM). The term “communications material” refers to a single system that includes a material equipped with communication devices. In this paper, the main limitation of CM was studied - the issue of energy consumption. Due to the limited battery capacity of sensor nodes, the issue of network lifetime comes to the fore, emphasizing the importance of power management and optimization for each sensor node. The first and most important step in tackling this problem is to precisely estimate and calculate each node's power usage. In addition, the WSN's embeddedness in the material makes it challenging to replace batteries and measure network power consumption, necessitating the development of a different approach to power consumption estimation. Thus, our work explores all the different approaches to energy estimation in WSN and tries to choose the best method that fits our WSN platform.

Otimização do tempo de vida em redes de sensores sem fio utilizando algoritmo de energia e protocolo difusão direcionada / Optimization of lifetime in nets algorithm using wireless sensors, energy and targeted dissemination protocolGinatto, Alex Leal 30 May 2008 (has links)
O notável desenvolvimento da indústria eletrônica observado nos últimos tempos tem permitido aplicações de conjuntos integrados de sensores em ambientes sem fio, conhecidos por wireless sensor networks (WSN), que passam por sensoriamento de processos industriais, ambientes tóxicos, projetos militares de monitoração de variáveis de segurança, até observação de fenômenos físicos naturais. Uma das principais especificações de uma rede WSN, o consumo de energia afeta diretamente a capacidade e tempo de vida útil do sistema, pois, na maioria dos casos, seus módulos possuem baterias independentes e sua substituição nem sempre é tarefa simples. Motivado pela necessidade de oferecer robustez e economia de energia nas redes WSN, o protocolo difusão direcionada se baseia na centralização de dados e a identificação de seus módulos é feita por meio de pares valor-atributo. Sua estrutura permite a adição de componentes de software que podem atuar na análise e modificação dos dados recebidos com o objetivo de alterar o protocolo original. O objetivo principal deste trabalho é investigar um método para otimização do uso de energia disponível em redes WSN com intuito de prolongar seu tempo de vida útil. O metódo consiste em analisar os valores das energias atribuídas aos módulos componentes da rede por meio de incorporação de um algoritmo de rotas baseado em energia ao protocolo difusão direcionada. Comparações de desempenho da rede em relação ao seu tempo de vida e energia dos módulos são realizadas utilizando o simulador NS-2. As simulações feitas em diversos cenários indicaram melhoria de desempenho em relação ao protocolo difusão direcionada original. Os cenários onde o protocolo original foi alterado apresentaram um número maior de rotas descobertas e possibilitaram um aumento de pelo menos 22% no tempo de vida da rede, em relação ao protocolo original. / The notable development of electronic industry in the last years allows the implementation of sensor integrated circuits in wireless environments, known as wireless sensor networks (WSN), which leads to industrial process sensing, toxic environments, military security monitor projects and natural physical phenomenon. As one of the main specifications of a WSN network, the energy consumption directly affects the capacity and the system useful lifetime, since most of the time its modules have independent batteries and their substitution is not always a simple task. Motivated by the need of offering robustness and energy economy for WSN networks, the directed diffusion protocol is data-centric based and its modules identification is made by attribute-value pairs. The directed diffusion structure enables the addition of software components which can act on the analysis and modification of received data with the objective of changing the original protocol. The main objective of this work is to investigate a method for optimization of available energy on WSN networks with the intention of increasing its useful lifetime. The method consists on analyzing the energy values attributed to the component modules of the network by incorporating an energy-based routing algorithm to directed diffusion protocol. Performance comparisons of the network related to its lifetime and modules energy are developed using the NS-2 simulator. Simulations performed in several scenarios indicated a better performance in relation to the original directed diffusion protocol. The scenarios where the original protocol was changed had larger number of discovered routes and allowed a rising of at least 22% on network lifetime, in relation to the original protocol.

Electrical valorization of MFC : application to monitoring / La récuperation d’énergie électrique de biopiles microbiennes pour l’application de monitoringPietrelli, Andrea 21 January 2019 (has links)
Dans les dernières années, l'utilisation intensive des combustibles fossiles a déclenché une crise mondiale due à la forte production de polluants et à la réduction des stocks, en raison de sa nature de source d'énergie non renouvelable. Parce que l'utilisation généralisée des combustibles fossiles a entraîné la production de grandes quantités de CO2, ce qui est un facteur aggravant du réchauffement de la planète. Les piles à combustible microbiennes (MFC) représentent une technique de récupération d'énergie qui convertit l'énergie chimique des composés organiques en énergie électrique par le biais de réactions catalytiques de micro-organismes. La MFC peut être considérée comme un archétypique de système microbien bioélectrochimique (BES), qui exploite l’activité bio-électrocatalytique de micro-organismes vivants pour la génération de courant électrique. Durant la dernière décennie, l’évolution de l’électronique de faible consommation a rendu la technologie des MFC plus attrayante, car elle commence à pouvoir fournir une énergie comparable à celle consommée par des périphériques dit à faible consommation, comme un nœud de réseau de capteurs sans fil (WSN). En plus, les MFC ont gagné en intérêt car elles peuvent générer de l'énergie électrique tout en traitant des déchets. Contrairement aux autres piles à combustible, les MFC peuvent générer en permanence une énergie propre à une température ambiante, à la pression atmosphérique et à un pH neutre, sans entretien supplémentaire. Les seuls sous-produits sont le CO2 et H2O, qui ne nécessitent aucune manipulation supplémentaire, car le CO2 produit est biogénique, ce qui est inclus dans le cycle du carbone biogéochimique, évitant l'émission nette de carbone dans l'atmosphère. Ce manuscrit examine certains aspects liés à la technologie des piles à combustible microbiennes, depuis les réactions chimiques jusqu’aux systèmes de gestion de l'énergie requis pour exploiter la puissance fournie par les MFC. Une campagne expérimentale a été menée sur les MFCs concernant la caractérisation électrique, la connexion multiple des MFCs et l’influence des principaux paramètres qui affectent les performances de conversion de l’énergie. Le contexte de la pile à biocarburant est introduit et les principes de base de fonctionnement et les applications principales sont expliqués. L'enquête comprend une évaluation de l'impact des différents matériaux d'électrode, du substrat utilisé et des bactéries impliquées dans le processus chimique. Une perspective consiste à ajuster les paramètres afin de maximiser la production d'électricité. La conception spécifique de nos MFC de laboratoire est également présentée. Les essais expérimentaux ont été effectués sur deux types de réacteurs : la pile à combustible microbienne terrestre et la pile à combustible microbienne à eau usée. Un système de mesure approprié est présenté, il est spécialement conçu pour les tests sur les MFC. Il est capable d'assurer une mesure précise de toutes les valeurs et paramètres électriques nécessaires à la caractérisation électrique des réacteurs dans une configuration unique ou dans une connexion multiple. Les solutions utilisées pour alimenter les WWMFC étaient différentes et dans certains cas, on utilisait de vraies eaux usées, alors que dans d'autres, des solutions synthétisées appropriées étaient conçues à cet effet. Les méthodes de synthèse des solutions sont décrites. L'influence des principaux paramètres tels que le pH et la température a été analysée pour les deux types de cellules. La campagne expérimentale comprend des mesures de réacteurs en configuration unique ou disposées dans des connexions en série ou en parallèle. Les résultats confirment l'augmentation de la tension dans le cas de connexions en série et l'augmentation de la puissance dans le cas de connexions en parallèle. [...] / In recent years, the extensive use of fossil fuels has triggered into a global crisis due to high pollution and stock reduction, because of its nature of non-renewable source of energy. Because the wide use of fossil fuels has led to the production of high amounts of CO2, as a result is a trigger of the global warming issue. Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) is an energy harvesting technique that converts chemical energy from organic compounds to electrical energy through catalytic actions of microorganisms. MFC can be considered as archetypical microbial Bioelectrochemical Systems (BESs), that exploit the bio-electrocatalytic activity of living microorganisms for the generation of electric current. In the past decade, the evolution of low power electronics has made MFCs technology more attractive, because it has begun to be able to power low-power devices forming complete systems, such as the nodes of a wireless sensor network (WSN). Moreover, MFCs gained more interest because they can generate electric power while treating wastes. Unlike other fuel cells, MFCs can continuously generate clean energy at normal temperature, atmospheric pressure, and neutral pH value without any supplementary maintenance. The only by-products are CO2 and H2O, which do not require additional handling. The production of CO2 is part of a short duration carbon cycle. The CO2 produced is biogenic, which is included in the biogeochemical carbon cycle, avoiding net carbon emission into atmosphere. This manuscript examines many aspects related to microbial fuel cell technology from chemical reactions inside the cells to the energy management systems required to exploit energy delivered from MFCs for practical usage in autonomous sensors. Experimental campaign was performed on MFCs regarding electrical characterization, multiple connections of MFCs and influence of main parameters that affect energy conversion performances. The experimental tests were performed on two different lab-scale reactor typologies: terrestrial microbial fuel cell and waste water microbial fuel cell. A survey is presented about different proposed energy management systems and other devices able to build a node of a WSN powered by MFCs.
