Abstract :
In this demonstration proposal we use a prototype of a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) to monitor and locate gas leaks of a complex indoor environment. Specifically, a mobile node is moving inside a building to monitor any leakage of carbon dioxide (CO2), supporting and displaying the level and the location of the leakage. Throughout the demonstration, the technological advantages of cognitive networking along with multihop routing are explored.
