Abstract

In recent years, and landslides caused by flooding of the river due to heavy rain, the number of such flooding of houses has increased. With regard to internal water damage, the structure and of the river, above sea level and, such as where a landfill, how completely prevent flood damage by internal water is difficult. To that end we have done a prototype of a portable ad hoc simple water gauge for the purpose of installation in the field in collaboration with Nippon Koei Co., Ltd. In particular, in a portable of the wireless sensor networks, communication reliability is greatly influenced by the surrounding environmental factors by communication node movement. Furthermore, features and issues required portable ad hoc simple water gauge system is operated in the actual disaster site, it is necessary to determine standing worker eyes for performing production. In this paper, it is possible to organize the task of ad hoc simple water gauge system that assumes the movement, was carried out implementation of portable wireless sensor networks.
