Abstract
Wireless sensor network (WSN) is considered here for remote monitoring of mine tunnels. Since mine transport and exploiting plane monitoring are the complex tasks that require video monitoring, a major challenge of remote mine tunnel monitoring is the multipath and diffraction effect due to unreliable channel and limited capacity. We propose here a braided cooperative reliable transport (BCRT) algorithm for reliable video transmission within mine tunnel. BCRT maintains one-hop reliability to ensure end-to-end reliability so that it is robust to path breaks. In addition, the BCRT-based WSN uses three consecutive forward neighbors to adjust the data rate to improve the sensing reliability. The proposed WSN is implemented in a real-life mine tunnel. And it is demonstrated to be able to enhance the reliability of the end-to-end monitoring of mine tunnels.
