Unit I
Wireless Sensor Networks and Mesh Networks
Wireless Ad-Hoc and Hybrid Networks – Distributed Sensing – Sensors and Transducers -Types of Sensors – Accuracy, Resolution and Hysteresis – Architecture of a Sensor Node And WSN – Applications of WSNs – Features of WMNs – Mesh Routers and Mesh Clients -Backbone and Backhaul Networks – Types of WMNs – Applications of WMNs.
Suggested Activities:
- External learning – Exploring various sensors, their corresponding actuators and finding out their price, various motes and their configuration (sensors supported, microcontroller and the clock speed, Flash, RAM, Battery capacity, RF transceivers and data rate supported).
- Flipped classroom on accuracy, resolution and hysteresis.
- Exploring various mesh routers and their configuration (Built-in radio interfaces in terms of IEEE 802.11 and its variants, connectivity (both wired and wireless), data rate supported, number of mesh clients supported, MU- MIMO capabilities).
Suggested Evaluation Methods:
- Assignments on types of sensors and their actuators available in the market, various motes and their configuration.
- Quiz and discussion on accuracy, hysteresis and resolution.
- Assignments on various mesh routers, commercial sink node gateways and sink node placement strategies.
