What is a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN)?

 Sensor:

 A transducer  converts physical phenomenon e.g. heat, light, motion,

vibration, and sound into electrical signals

 Sensor node:

 Basic unit in a sensor network  Sensors, processor, memory, transceiver, and power supply

 Sensor network:

 Large number of sensor nodes  Nodes deployed either inside or very close to the sensed

phenomenon

WSN’s characteristics

One or more sink nodes. No direct connection to the sink node

Forward Routing

Shared medium (wireless)

MAC protocol.

Commercial WSN nodes: advantages and disadvantages

 Advantages

 They implement the basic function of a WSN node.  Optimized design.

 Disadvantages

 Expensive  Sometimes difficult to extend

 So, it is desirable to account with a benchmark to

implement a WSN node So, we buildWiSe-Nodes

WiSe-nodes architecture

WiS iSe-nod nodes’ funct ctions:

  • Send/receive data packets.
  • Send/receive forward sensor data.
  • Send/receive ctrl packets (MAC & routing)

Components of a WiSe-Node

 Processor unit

 Two Microchip PIC16F877A microcontrollers.  F-Microcontroller (transceiver interface)  H-Microcontroller (hybrid routing and MAC protocol)

 Two different transceivers

 Chipcon CC1000PP-868  Raw RF transceiver: TWS-BS and RWS-374

WASP: Wireless Asynchronous Simple Protocol

 WASP: Implements MAC and routing.  Goal: Collect sensor data and send data to the head node (h)

  • f theWSN.

 Collecting data:

 h builds a tree.  h is the head of the tree.  Tree is built by using a token.

 Two stages:

 Adoption process  Tree maintenance

 Each node implementsWASP

Conclusions

 WiSe-Nodes: general architecture to build a wireless sensor

node.

 A testbed to implement new wireless sensor network

protocols.

 Architecture based on the PIC16f877 microcontroller.  WiSe-nodes are about 60% less expensive than commercial

nodes forWSNs.

 Further work:

 Port our code toAmtelAVRs.  Use light, rotation and vibration sensors.
