Parameterized placement algorithm of WSN for structural health monitoring

WSN is an application specific network. There is no general optimized solution for WSN problems. It depends upon application, resource availability. Structural health monitoring (SHM) using wireless sensor networks has drawn considerable attention in recent years. It is an active area of research that can autonomously and proactively assess the structural integrity of buildings, bridges, tunnels, turbines and nuclear reactors etc. using Wireless Sensor Network. This paper basically focuses on application dependent parameters that effect algorithms for SHM applications. The parameters which are effect at Routing layer have been discussed for SHM applications considering network design model parameters. An efficient algorithm has been proposed to prolong the network lifetime and mathematical calculations are showing that LFT is increasing and energy consumption is decreasing for a given sensor node by optimizing the distance.
