Adaptive algorithm for microsensor in sustainable environmental monitoring

Abstract

Traditional data collection from sensors produce a lot of data, which lead to constant power consumption and require more storage space. This study proposes an algorithm for a data acquisition and processing method based on Fourier transform (DFT), which extracts dominant frequency components using harmonic analysis (HA) to identify frequency peaks. This algorithm allows sensors to activate only when an event occurs, while preserving critical information for detecting defects, such as those in the surface structures of buildings and ensuring accuracy for further predictions.
