Automatic System for Monitoring of Strategic Infrastructure Using Wireless Sensors

The strategic infrastructure, electrical grid, railroad, water and natural gas delivery grids are nowadays the target of choice for either terrorist or stealing activities. Monitoring the strategic infrastructure in order to prevent failures due to such activities is not an easy task due to the complexity of these systems. In this article it is presented a possible solution for monitoring the 110/400 kV electrical grid infrastructure based on the latest available electronic and IT&C components and technologies. The proposed system is designed both to provide a high level of security and to avoid false alarms and encompass a large variety of sensors and innovative techniques.
