Abstract

The aim of this paper is to give an overview of WESNEP, an environmental wireless sensor network which is currently being developed at the University of Pavia in order to study alpine permafrost. After a brief introduction on environmental sensor networks and the definition of permafrost, the motivation of WESNEP project and the architecture of the network are described, finally the main benefits expected from the project are presented.

The Electrical and Electronics Engineering category covers resources concerned with applications of electricity, generally those involving current flow through conductors, as in motors and generators. This category also covers the examination of the conduction of electricity through gases or a vacuum as well as through semiconducting materials. Topics include image and signal processing, electromagnetics, electronic components and materials, microwave technology, and microelectronics.
