Abstract—The collaborative and low-cost nature of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) brings significant advantages over traditional communication technologies, making them a vital component of the next-generation transport system, the smart transport grid. In this paper, we explore the implementation of a smart monitoring system over a wireless sensor network. We analyze opportunities and challenges for distributed signal processing in networks of these sensing elements and investigate some of the architectural challenges posed by systems that are massively distributed, physically-coupled, wirelessly networked, and energy limited. The article is considered an example of analysis of actual transport system.

Index Terms—wireless sensors, transport system, signal processing, sensor node, analysis of actual transport system.
