Abstract
In order to diagnose the working status of each module on sensor node and make sure the wireless sensor networks (WSN) work properly, the components of sensor node and their working characteristics are studied. An on-line fault self-diagnosis method for sensor node is proposed. First, a flexible fault sensing circuit is designed as a state detection module on sensor node. Second, a self-diagnosis algorithm is proposed based on the hardware design and the failure analysis on sensor node. Finally, in order to ensure the WSN reliability, the voltage changes of each module working statuses can be observed using the state detection module and the faulty module will be found out timely. The experimental results show that this self-diagnosis method is suitable to sensor nodes in WSN.
