Abstract

A Wireless sensor network (WSN) consists of a potentially large number of sensor nodes with wireless-communication capabilities that work collaboratively to achieve a common goal. While every WSN application has specific requirements, there are some common basic services that any WSN must offer in order to support applications. There are available commercial WSN nodes offering such basic services, but they are still very expensive. So, we ask ourselves if it is possible to build a WSN node keeping low costs, while at the same time implementing these basic services: the answer is yes. We built sensor nodes and we call them WiSe-Nodes. In this paper we present the architecture of our WiSe-Nodes as well as the details about their hardware modules. We present also an hybrid MAC-routing protocol called WASP that implements the basic services of a WSN. Finally, as a tool for the WSN developers we introduce our simulator YAWSS that provides a controlled test environment where new WSN protocols can be tested and executed before implementing them in hardware.

智能节点:无线传感器网络的节点原型系列

无线传感器网络(WSN)由潜在的大量具有无线通信能力的传感器节点组成，这些节点协同工作以实现共同的目标。虽然每个WSN应用程序都有特定的需求，但是为了支持应用程序，任何WSN都必须提供一些通用的基本服务。有一些商业WSN节点提供这样的基本服务，但是它们仍然非常昂贵。因此，我们问自己是否有可能构建一个保持低成本的WSN节点，同时实现这些基本服务:答案是肯定的。我们建立了传感器节点，我们称之为智能节点。在本文中，我们介绍了我们的智能节点的体系结构及其硬件模块的详细信息。我们还提出了一种称为WASP的混合mac路由协议，它实现了WSN的基本服务。最后，作为WSN开发人员的工具，我们介绍了我们的模拟器YAWSS，它提供了一个受控的测试环境，在硬件实现之前，可以对新的WSN协议进行测试和执行。
