An implementation of the WSN node is presented with experimental results and a novel "one processor working at two frequencies" energy saving strategy. The lifetime estimation issue is analyzed with consideration to the periodical listen required by common WSN media access control (MAC) algorithms. It can be concluded that the startup time of the RF which determines the best sleep time ratio and the shortest backoff slot time of MAC, the RF frequency and modulation methods which determinate the RX and TX current, and the overall energy consumption of the dual frequency MCU SOC ( system on chip) are the most essential factors for the WSN node physical layer design.展开更多

The passive UHF RFID transponder with complex impedances is powered by received RF energy. The approach uses the parasitic inductance of the antenna to implement ASK modulation by adjusting the capacitive reactance of the matching network, which changes with the backscatter circuit. The impedance matching achieves maximum power transfer between the reader, antenna, and transponder. The transponder IC,whose operating distance is more than 4m with the impedance matching approach,is fabricated using a Chartered 0.35μm two-poly four-metal CMOS process that supports Schottky diodes and EEPROM.展开更多

Assuming that node axial orientations are unknown, all angles are measured to calculate the angle differences between two nodes viewed by the third one.

If all measurements are accurate, the localization problem can be formulated as linear programming (LP). Otherwise, by incorporating auxiliary variables, it can be regarded as quadratic programming (QP). Simulations show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.展开更多

When the WSN is available, the difference between the distances from the blind node(BN) to the reference nodes (RNs) measured by the INS and those measured by the WSN are used as measurement information for the KF due to its better observability and independence, which can effectively improve the accuracy of the KF. Simulations show that the proposed approach reduces the mean error of the position by about 50% compared with loosely-coupled integration, while the mean error of the velocity is a little higher than that of loosely-coupled integration.展开更多

Base...In order to start up the brushless DC motor (BLDCM) without reverse rotation and smoothly switch the running state of the motor, a novel startup and smoothly switching method for a sensodess BLDCM is presented. Based on the saturation effect of the stator iron, six short voltage pulses are applied to determine the initial rotor position and the rotor can be found within 60°. After that, a series of short and long voltage pulses are used to accelerate the motor and the variation of the response current is utilized to detect the rotor position dynamically. When the motor reaches a certain speed at which the back-electromotive force (EMF) method can be applied, all the power devices are turned off and the running state of the motor is smoothly switched at the moment determined by the relationship between the terminal voltage waveform and the commutation phases. The experimental results verify the feasibility and validity of the proposed method.展开更多

The construction of TORA is based on a kind of swarm intelligence (SI) mechanism, i. e. , ant colony optimization. Firstly, the ener- gy-efficient weight is designed based on flow distribution to divide WSNs into different functional regions, so the routing selection can self-adapt asymmetric power configurations with lower latency. Then, the designs of the novel heuristic factor and the pheromone updating rule can endow ant-like agents with the ability of detecting the local networks energy status and approaching the theoretical optimal tree, thus improving the adaptability and en- ergy-efficiency in route building. Simulation results show that compared with some classic routing algorithms, TORA can further minimize the total communication energy cost and enhance the QoS performance with low-de- lay effect under the data-gathering condition.展开更多

Based on the (α, β)-tree concept, a new connected dominating tree with bounded transmission delay problem(CDTT) is defined and a corresponding algorithm is designed to construct a CDT-tree which can trade off limited total power and bounded transmission delay from source to destination nodes. The CDT algorithm consists of two phases: The first phase constructs a maximum independent set(MIS)in a unit disk graph model. The second phase estimates the distance and calculates the transmission power to construct a spanning tree in an undirected graph with different weights for MST and SPF, respectively. The theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the CDT algorithm gives a correct solution to the CDTF problem and forms a virtual backbone with( α,β)-constraints balancing the requirements of power consumption and transmission delay.展开更多
