Abstract

There is an increasing demand for sensing and measuring different parameters in vacuum environments. However, using cables for communication and power supply of the sensor nodes in vacuum chambers is not desirable. In this paper, we investigate the applicability of wireless sensor networks in vacuum environments by studying experimentally the reliability of wireless communication through vacuum chamber walls, as well as within vacuum chambers.
