The impact of temperature on outdoor industrial sensornet applications
<06> This is the first work to quantify the impact of temperature variation on communication quality in industrial wireless sensor networks; for intance, showing that typical daily temperature fluctuations can lead to a ~16% variation in required transmission power. These insights are highly significant for sensor network operation, and this paper forms the basis of the FP7 collaborative grant "RELYonIT" (€1.45M) investigating wireless sensor network reliability in the face of temperature swings and other environmental conditions. IEEE TII is the top journal in industrial informatics (IF 2.99), and this work is listed in the journal's annual Top 10 most cited.
