(orcid)0000-0003-4404-776X Reliable Lifespan Evaluation of a Remote Environment Monitoring System Based on Wireless Sensor Networks and Global System for Mobile Communications 2016 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted The use of wireless sensor networks (WSN) for monitoring physical and chemical variables in large areas allows density and frequency measurements which have been unavailable to date in classical measurement systems. To fully take advantage of this technology in a particular application, besides an accurate design and selection of all the components involved in its operation, it is essential to dispose of reliable lifetime estimation prior to deployment. This paper presents an experimental approach to determine the actual lifetime of such battery-operated systems, making use of a custom WSN architecture, and for different batteries technologies. To render a reliable evaluation, the energy consumption of the sensor nodes under their different operation modes, in correlation with the battery characteristics and the voltage regulation system, is jointly considered. The result is a complete and practical lifetime model, whose appropriate performance has been validated in a real deployment scenario. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO-FEDER/TEC2012-30802 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO-FEDER/TEC2014-52840-R info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO-FEDER/TEC2015-65750-R info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 1.704 2016 INSTRUMENTS & INSTRUMENTATION 26 / 58 = 0.448 2016 Q2 T2 ENGINEERING, ELECTRICAL & ELECTRONIC 126 / 259 = 0.486 2016 Q2 T2 0.273 2016 Control and Systems Engineering 2016 Q3 Instrumentation 2016 Q3 Electrical and Electronic Engineering 2016 Q3 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Medrano, N.
