Abstract

Location determination is an important problem for almost all WSN applications. However, obviously becomes an important target in the case of surveillance systems for forest fires do not have to support real-time monitoring of each point of an area at any time location early threat of fire.Solutions applying wireless sensor networks, on the other hand, can gather sensorial data values, like temperature and humidity, from all points of a area incessantly, day and night, and allow for fresh and precise data to the fire-fighting center rapidly.In this paper, we present the pattern and implementation of a model for the detection and localization of forest fires and the control environment. In order to know precisely and almost in real time the risk of forest fires, we design and are implementing a protocol type ”Range-based” for a large-scale deployment based on convex hull. The effciency of the method is demonstrated by simulations, we show that our framework can supply quick response to forest fires while consuming energy effciently.
