Towards robust communication-based object monitoring under harsh propagation conditions

Battery-powered sensor nodes are available for various monitoring tasks. Among these, cargo trains pose some special challenges on both the nodes as well as the communication due to the harsh environmental conditions. In this paper, we present insight on propagation conditions in train scenarios based on theoretical simulations and real-world measurements and finally discuss options to achieve robust and reliable communication under the observed conditions. The discussion also includes requirements regarding quality of service and energy-efficiency.
