Abstract

Continuous surveillance in a reservoir is necessary for managing resources properly; yet traditional cloud services encounter delays, limited bandwidth and high energy costs. To overcome these limitations, the study presents a new system that merges edge computing with Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). The system achieves faster response times and decreased power use by processing information close to where sensors are placed. ESNs and other reservoir computing structures are key components of the platform for processing unbalanced sensor information smoothly. Real-time detection and prediction of unusual patterns is possible with ESNs because their reservoirs can automatically handle input signals. This process is made better by using a fault-tolerant edge provisioning framework that helps choose the best placement for nodes that balance being reliable, using less energy and delivering services fast. Specifically, the devices can preprocess their data and filter out noisy parts and then encode these important features before they send the state vectors to servers for deeper study. Experiments in water quality monitoring reveal how the system processes all the intended measurements (such as pH and dissolved oxygen) despite not having much bandwidth. The use of inkjet-printed sensors along with analog pulse-based telemetry helps to both lower costs and use less energy. There is a 40% decrease in delay time for transferring data and a 30% rise in successful fault detection, as shown by the results, compared to models that depend on the cloud
