  • Abstract
    This paper describes a set of preliminary laboratory experiments to demonstrate the different centralized/decentralized wireless sensing and control architectures. The results have demonstrated the viability and potential of wireless sensing and control devices for large scale decentralized structural control applications. Other robust and dynamic control strategies utilizing wireless sensing network are currently being investigated.
