Predictable, Real-Time Communicationfor Wireless Networked Sensing and Control Hongwei Zhang hongwei@wayne.edu http://www.cs.wayne.edu/~hzhang Hongwei Zhang, Wayne State University, Feb. 26, 2013
Wireless networked, closed-loop, real-time sensing and control • Sensing, networking, and computing tightly coupled with the physical process • Connected vehicles • IEEE 802.11p/DSRC, WAVE • Smart grid • IEEE 802.15.4g, NIST • Industrial monitoring and control • WirelessHART, ISA SP100.11a • Wireless networks as carriers of mission-critical sensing and control information • Stringent requirements on predictable QoS such as reliability and timeliness Sponsors: NSF (CAREER, CPS, GENI), Ford Research, GM Research
Connected vehicles: inter- and Intra-vehicle sensing and control • From passive to active safety: lane departure warning, collision avoidance; From single-vehicle control to platoon control & integrated infrastructure-vehicle control: networked fuel economy and emission control • From wired intra-vehicle networks to wireless intra-vehicle networks • Multiple controller-area-networks (CANs) inside vehicles • 50+ kg of wires increased, reduced fuel efficiency • Lack of scalability: hundreds of sensors, controllers, and actuators • Wiring unreliability: warranty cost, reduced safety
Systems research Sensor network testbeds: NetEye, KanseiGenie SDR-based connected-vehicle research platform GENI WiMAX research network GENI Racks for cloud computing
