Abstract

This paper discusses steps towards a low-power beam-switching array antenna suitable for wireless sensor network (WSN) applications. Such an antenna will help to improve the signal to noise ratio (SNR), and thus throughput, latency and other important wireless network performance parameters. The power consumption is a factor critical for the long autonomous operation of battery-powered WSN nodes, and has thus been given special attention. A prototype was manufactured and has demonstrated a good match between the simulated and experimentally measured gain and return loss. The power consumption of the RF electronics was also measured and found to be below 1.1 mW.
面向无线传感器网络的超低功耗可控阵列天线
本文讨论了一种适合无线传感器网络应用的低功率波束开关阵列天线的研制步骤。这样的天线将有助于提高信噪比(SNR),从而提高吞吐量、延迟等重要的无线网络性能参数。功耗是电池供电WSN节点长期自主运行的关键因素,因此受到了特别的关注。制作了一个原型,并证明了模拟和实验测量的增益和回波损耗之间的良好匹配。射频电子器件的功耗也进行了测量,发现低于1.1 mW。
