Mobile Monitoring System for Indonesian volcano

Abstract

A new combination between Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), mobile robot and satellite technology for Indonesian volcano monitoring system, Mobile Monitoring System for Indonesian Volcano (MONICA) has been developed. This system divided into two modes: fixed-mode and mobile mode. The first mode has shown a good performance. For a small event of volcano activity, the system only uses power 1 million times lower than the power from existing equipment (seismometer). Bandwidth management technique results in 1 normalized throughput with average delay 6 ms as perfect as quality management technique which detects no false alarm and 100% delivery rate.
