Internet of Things and Wireless Sensor Networks for Environmental Noise Sensing: Issues and Challenges

Abstract

Noise pollution is a frequent issue in urbanized environments. Standard environmental noise in populated areas can range from 30-80 dB. Recently, wireless sensor networks have received significant attention because of their ubiquitous nature and their vast utilization. wireless sensor networks are extremely dynamic and flexible, and they are being used in virtually every type of environment, including urban, countryside, or suburban areas. This paper investigates environmental noise sensing and provides a comprehensive review of the state-of-art technology used in the Internet of Things and wireless sensor networks for noise sensing. The primary objective of this study is to provide more detailed information about environmental noise sensing. More specifically, the challenges and issues related to noise sensing are identified and examined, while recommendations for future research and development are also presented.

Towards secure smart cities: design and implementation of smart home digital communication system

“…Smart home appliances based built in sensors have improved the home live through many home appliances that include refrigerators, sewing machines, washing machines, television, etc. As a consequence, security of property and life requires serious attention, particularly with the advent of the era of 5G and internet of things (IoT) [4][5][6][7].…”
