Remote Monitoring System with Optical Fiber Sensors and the Internet-Standard Protocol

Services exploiting environmental information col- lected by sensor networks are in great vogue. Even though many sensor networks adopt wireless sensor devices, wireless sensor networks hold the battery life problem of sensor devices. Therefore, Optical Sensory Nerve Network (OSN) using the hetero-core optical fibers can simultaneously conduct sensing and communications without batteries. In this paper, the data collection method with the Internet-standard protocol in OSN is proposed. Additionally, this paper describes a remote monitoring system and development results of the remote monitoring system in OSN. Keywords—sensor network; optical fiber sensor; simple network management protocol.
