Low Power Wireless AD-HOC Networking

Speaker: Wai How Michael Woo, ITEE

When: 01.00PM, Thursday 20 Nov 2003

Venue: 78-420

Host: Mark Schulz

Abstract:

  The designs of low power wireless system have gained increasing
  importance for a variety of civil and military applications. Such
  example is the development of Bluetooth and more recently the
  research and development of Ultra-Wideband Transmission Systems. At
  this stage, these two wireless systems are still quite expensive and
  it has not been used as a day-to-day item in a house. These low
  power wireless micro sensor networks will enable the reliable
  monitoring of a variety of applications that range from medical and
  home security to machine diagnosis and chemical detection. It should
  also be easily integrated to another application.

  Networking together these low power micro sensors requires energy
  efficient protocols. Some work has already been done around this
  area such as LEACH (Low-Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy). More
  research can be done around this area to improve the power
  efficiency of a wireless system.

  In this seminar, I will be presenting how it is possible to design a
  low power wireless embedded system with the combination of low power
  hardware and energy efficient protocol. I will also be comparing
  different wireless system that is currently in the market.
