• Clear if valid 802.15.4 packet and energy below threshold
– Does not store the state
Summary: 802.15.4 compliant radio
is able to detect 802.11 traffic
Trang 12• On-demand, course-grained power on/off of
networking equipments at a remote site
• Use of off the shelf 802.15.4 compliant sensor motes working in 2.4 GHz.
• Setting ideal for rural deployment.
• Usage of data channel itself for remote
wake-up
• No separate antenna (shared with 802.11
equipment).
• Results • Conclusions

• Packets of size 1462 bytes
at 1Mbps with inter packet
intervals of 10, 20 and
100ms
• Polling of CCA pin on
sensor node every 3ms
Summary: Traffic pattern of 802.11 successfully replicated on motes

• Power consumption of Soekris acting as a
router/switch with two wireless 802.11b cards = 7.7W (typical)
• Boot-up time for Soekris 50s
• VoIP service in Sarauhan in the DGP testbed
– Usage pattern: 15 calls/day of 71s avg duration
23mA with CPU and Radio receiving
Example Scenario • Results • Conclusions
Trang 16• E no_wow = P up x T up
• E wow = E mote + E bootup + E usage where
– Emote = Vmote x Imote x Tidle
– Ebootup = Pbootup x Tbootup
– Eusage = Pup x Tactive
• Using above values
• Thus power saving is:
– (Eno_wow – Ewow)/ Eno_wow– Greater than 91%
• Results • Conclusions

• Does not work on 802.11a
• Hibernation facility desired: faster boot-up
• Suffers from noise generated triggers
• Advanced usage: morphing topology
• More detailed study of usage pattern for better power savings.
