Air quality has been negatively affected by industrial activities, which have caused imbalances in nature. The issue of air pollution has become a big concern for many people, especially those living in industrial areas. Air pollution levels can be measured using smart sensors. Additionally, Internet of Things (IoT) technology can be integrated to remotely detect pollution without any human interaction. The data gathered by such a system can be transmitted instantly to a web-based application to facilitate monitoring real time data and allow immediate risk management. In this paper, we describe an entire Internet of Things (IoT) system that monitors air pollution by collecting real-time data in specific locations. This data is analyzed and measured against a predetermined threshold. The collected data is sent to the concerned official organization to notify them in case of any violation so that they can take the necessary measures. Furthermore, if the value of the measured pollutants exceeds the threshold, an alarm system is triggered taking several actions to warn the surrounding people.

Emerging demands for high data rate services, high user capacity and low power consumption systems are the key driving forces behind the continued technology evolution in wireless communications. Multicarrier Modulation techniques support variety of services requiring different data rates and different QoS (quality of service) levels. Multicarrier CDMA is a wireless communication system that can be seen as a combination of direct sequence CDMA and Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing techniques. The main benefits of this system are its robustness to inter symbol interference and multipath propagation in fading channels. This paper studies and simulates the Discrete Wavelet Transform based Multicarrier CDMA and compares it with the Discrete Fourier Transform based one using different number of sub carriers, and different modulation techniques. The results shows that the Wavelet based system outperforms the Fourier based one since it has lower bit error rate BER performance, lower peak to verage power ratio PAPR and higher user capacity.
