WP 3.2.Commercial Mote Hardware Trade-off Surrey Space Centre, University of Surrey, UK Christopher P. Bridges Friday, 24th November 2006
Agenda • Requirements • Intrasatellite and Intersatellite • Comparison • Hardware • Communications • Software/ Cost • Analysis Snapshot • Recommendations SSC Internal Meeting
Requirements SSC Internal Meeting
Comparison - Hardware Microcontroller – Want the lowest power requirement. Memory – Important for buffering/ storage whilst communications is in use. Temp – Biggest band as possible. SSC Internal Meeting
Comparison - Communications Frequency – Dependant on application. Lower frequencies travel further than the higher. Power Consumption – Lowest as possible (dependant on hardware used). Data Rates – Highest as possible. Range – Dependant on application. SSC Internal Meeting
Comparison – Software/ Cost Standards – Enabling different network topology options (e.g. multi-hop) Supplied Software – What comes with the package? Cost – Where can we buy from? Price per unit? SSC Internal Meeting

Ember Notes: Topologies Ember’s communications API facilitates the development of self-organizing, self-healing, peer-to-peer networks targeted to specific customer requirements. It contains libraries for EmberZNet’s mesh-, star-, and hybrid-networks. To achieve efficient messaging in complex networks, the communications API allows developers to build the most effective network for the application SSC Internal Meeting
Zensys Notes: Sensing The ZW0201 is a complete System on Chip (SoC) and consists of an integrated RF transceiver, an 8051 microcontroller, flash and SRAM memory storage and a range of peripherals. For battery-operated devices we are extremely pleased to inform you that ZW0201 has dramatically reduced its power consumption. It is now possible to create Z-Wave products such as sensors, remotes, door locks, etc. that can run for up to 10 years with 2 AAA batteries. SSC Internal Meeting
Crossbow - Telos Notes: Development The TelosB Mote is an open-source platform designed to enable cutting-edge experimentation for the research community. This platform bundles all the essentials for lab studies: USB programming capability, IEEE 802.15.4 radio with integrated antenna, low power MCU with extended memory and an optional sensor suite. This platform is used primarily for low-power research development and wireless sensor network experimentation. SSC Internal Meeting
