CBRN-IoTA - CBRN IoT Sensing Architecture

|   Call 2021

CBRN-IoTA evaluates civil IoT protocols and architectures with regard to their applicability in the field of CBRN protection. In addition, the legal and regulatory framework conditions for the use of electronic dosimeters are examined.

IoT platforms enable the rapid collection of accurate data through the use of many low-cost sensors. The vast amounts of data collected by these sensors and their subsequent processing have been proven in many industrial applications. In the field of ABC protection, messages in NATO Message Text Formats (AAP-09 and ADatP-03) are currently predominantly used to transmit measurement data. These formats are designed for low bandwidth scenarios and are not suitable for a large amount of sensors, nor for sensors with high sampling frequency. In this study, based on civil IoT protocols, a flexible IoT architecture is developed that takes into account the specific framework of ABC protection. This is to ensure secure data acquisition, efficient processing, and interoperability with existing BMLV systems. For this purpose, various existing protocols and standards for different use cases will be evaluated and a recommendation catalog for practical use will be developed. In addition, the legal and regulatory requirements for data acquisition using electronic dosimeters will be investigated. In particular, aspects of labor and data protection law will be investigated and recommendations for introduction and possible legal adjustments and technical measures will be developed.
