When a natural disaster hits an urban area, the first 72 hours after are the most critical. After that period the probability of finding survivors falls dramatically, therefore the search and rescue activities in that ar...

In this paper a propagation model of acoustic signals in an underwater channel is analyzed. This one is applied to a short vertical communication link. In this way, it's possible to predict the transmission loss, the noi...

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are extensively used in applications such as environmental monitoring, surveillance, and smart security, but their performance is limited by the restricted energy capacity of sensor nodes,...

Abstract Wireless Sensor Networks comprise low-cost, low-power, lightweight, and multifunctional sensor nodes capable of sensing and transmitting data from remote or hazardous environments to a central base station. Thes...

In this article, we tackle the problem of distributed detection of a radio source emitting a signal. We consider that geographically distributed sensor nodes obtain energy measurements and compute cooperatively a statist...
