Abstract

This research proposes the most ideal Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) topology for remote integrity monitoring of an offshore gas turbine driven generator. The intention is to design the structure of a number of WSNs within the electrical generation system with varying connection types and methods of relaying data. The research is concerned only with the design of the WSNs, i.e. the hardware and orientation of the sensor nodes and not the software, programming or data protection. This will potentially provide a good base, once an ideal WSN design is determined, to expand the network further incorporating more criteria and develop the necessary software to complete the WSN. The work applies the Evidential Reasoning approach to a number of WSN topologies in order to determine the most suitable based upon an outlined set of performance criteria. Axiom based validation of the methodology is also provided within the analysis.
