Open physical complex artificial systems involve wireless autonomous entities submitted to strength constrainted energetic policies. The features of these systems naturally lead to apply multiagent techniques to ensure both the autonomy of entities and the best organization of the whole system. We propose a multiagent approach for wireless communication management and functional integrity maintaining for such physical multiagent systems using self-organization mechanisms. We show the performances of this multiagent approach by comparison to usual communication management based on wireless protocols used in this area. The genericity of our contribution is highlighted by the proposition of a middleware layer integrated in agent. We give an insight to a real world application of instrumentation of an underground instrumentation using the middleware.
