IEEE 1451标准族智能传感器技术发展浅析

Development of IEEE 1451 Family of Standards

IEEE1451标准族的目标是定义一套通用的通信接口,使变送器同微处理器、仪器系统或网络相连接,标准不仅允许厂家生产的传感器支持多种网络,还允许用户根据实际情况选择传感器和网络(有线或无线网络),并支持“即插即用”。

The main goal of the IEEE 1451 standards is to define a set of common communication interfaces to standardize the connectivity of transducers to microprocessors, instrumentation systems, and control/field networks. IEEE 1451 is the technology that not only allows sensor manufacturers to support multiple networks, but also let users pick sensors and networks for their applications based on merits. The overall objectives are to allow users to access any sensor in a wired or wireless network, and “plug and play” of sensors to a network.
