Abstract :
Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) plays an extremely substantial role in various structures in terms of collecting observation of environmental conditions as well as detecting failures. The present study demonstrates the algorithm for the process of SHM by applying integration of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system with sensor-tags in order to indicate how communication is carried out throughout the system. Two methods are proposed in which integration-based model of RFID and Wireless Sensor Nodes (WSN) is firstly investigated for bridge application and incorporation of RFID with passive sensor-tags is secondly employed for structural health monitoring. Regarding the latter method, the implementation model is offered with the purpose of demonstrating the system performance simulated in Petri net toolbox.
