Wireless technology is herein applied to implement a real-time communication link between the nodes of a control system. The purpose of this paper is to introduce a wireless embedded technology which enables to successfully implement the control system, to improve the expected structural safety, and to re-duce the high-costs of the current solutions. A prototype of the wireless structural sensing and control system was implemented and its performance is verified and validated by analyzing the results of shaking table tests carried out on a reduced-scale structure. The feasibility of employing different control strategies is investi-gated. The feedback control algorithms are embedded between the wireless sensors and the actuator devices.

Abstract
Wireless technology is herein applied to implement a real-time communication link between the nodes of a control system. The purpose of this paper is to introduce a wireless embedded technology which enables to successfully implement the control system, to improve the expected structural safety, and to re-duce the high-costs of the current solutions. A prototype of the wireless structural sensing and control system was implemented and its performance is verified and validated by analyzing the results of shaking table tests carried out on a reduced-scale structure. The feasibility of employing different control strategies is investi-gated. The feedback control algorithms are embedded between the wireless sensors and the actuator devices.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
