Collecting Multiple Data Points In A Thunderstorm Environment, Matthew Nelson
Collecting Multiple Data Points In A Thunderstorm Environment, Matthew Nelson
2017 Academic High Altitude Conference
Collecting multiple data points in adverse conditions such as a thunderstorm presents a number of challenges in collecting and relaying data. Wireless sensor mesh networks is a proven method for extracting and relaying data in radio environments that may either be roving, in adverse conditions or both. This paper explores using wireless sensor mesh networks to collect atmospheric data that is present in a thunderstorm system to enable researchers to learn more from these systems. A wireless sensor mesh network is ideal since it is well suited for both moving and sensor nodes that are in adverse RF conditions. A …
