The ever-increasing threat of air pollution as a serious health hazard throughout the world requires measuring prior to devising a structured solution. Air quality monitoring systems measure the amount of particulate matter such as particles and hazardous gases in the air. Information is required on the quality of air monitoring and dust detection system in order to make managerial decisions to improve environmental conditions and prevent and treat diseases caused by dust. The present study aims to develop a simple, highly sensitive, and economical monitoring system for the determination of air particulate. In this paper, we develop a real-time ad hoc wireless airborne particle monitoring system using the IEEE ۸۰۲.۱۵.۴ low power sensor network technology called RTWSM, featuring a low-cost sensor node for mass production. Its dynamic features of high scalability and ad hoc architecture enable the design to provide significantly more useful information under all environments, including indoor or outdoor monitoring applications. The performance of the proposed monitoring sensor system is evaluated in environmental and industrial occupation debates to monitor the PM۲.۵ particle data. The results confirm that the proposed experimental setup works well for local air pollution monitoring and could be extended to automation industrial applications.
