4 CONCLUSION
The paper describes a SOA based platform
developed for smart sensor systems integration. It
has services to manage different heterogeneous
sensor networks or group of smart sensors in one
sensor system which provides the necessary
interoperability. The developed services allow for
easy integration of heterogeneous sensors and
creation of data views for application developers.
The platform is hardware independent and the
developers based on the proposed services can easily
access data from every sensor network or smart
sensor without the need of knowledge how the
sensor system work and which kind of
communication protocols are running. There are
services allowing data compression and messages
encryption. Many smart sensor networks wireless or
not can be integrated in one smart sensor system
under common management and QoS. The process
of integration is transparent and geographically
independent. This means that sensor networks based
on different countries and with different topology
and functionality can act as one sensor system.
Based on developed communication interfaces,
currently the platform supports ZigBee, WiFi and
BT4/BLE communication technologies. The long
range RoIP based communication platform is under
development too. Also, there is an opportunity of
building of Virtual Sensor Systems accepting
specific requirements by simply developed services.
The implemented 6LoWPan protocol management
as service in the platform allows for direct access to
smart sensor devices supporting this protocol, as for
example the devices from Texas Instrument
CC2538, CC1180 etc.
