Promising wireless applications in the construction industry

Abstract

Wireless technology such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and other are used in many areas of the economy [1-3]. Experts know the advantages and disadvantages of wireless technology. The advantages include the fact that, firstly, the mobile work of employees is ensured, and secondly, wireless control of technical and household appliances and technological processes is possible. The disadvantages of technology include the fact that the proper level of information security is not always ensured. In addition, when using this technology should be done difficult work associated with determining the possible impact of other wireless networks, as well as different types of electromagnetic fields. In the field of construction, wireless solutions are associated with the projects “Smart Home” and “Smart City”. Meanwhile, with the help of wireless technologies, other solutions are possible to improve the efficiency of work in the construction industry. The purpose of this work is to consider such solutions, to study the possibility of their application in the construction industry and to develop practical conclusions and recommendations based on this research.
