Abstract

The paper presents development setup we use for design of adaptable sensor node interface to be used as a part of Wireless Sensor Network for wAter QaUAlity monitoring (WSN-AQUA) hardware infrastructure. We introduce WSN-AQUA concept and a set of basic sensors we plan to use for water quality monitoring. Core components of our experimental adaptive hardware node are modern low-power precision ADuCM360 microcontroller with dual sigma-delta ADCs and integrated Analog Front End for low-power pH sensing applications. The paper presents overview structure of experimental setup and summarize basic functionality of adaptive sensor interface we plan to develop.
