Motivation • There are some battery operated systems in the field of meter reading and outdoor control & monitoring. • Such systems require multi-year battery life. • IEEE802.15.4-2006 could not satisfy requirements for these applications. • IEEE802.15.4g standard will need to provide low power features that enable multi-year battery operation. Hirohito Nishiyama, Ryoji Ono, Seiichi Hiraoka
Target Systems - Battery Operated Systems • Meter reading for gas and water - In Japan, meters for gas and water should operate by battery. - Battery life should be over 10 years. - Deal with meter reading data and alarm of a gas leak and a fire. • Out door control & monitoring - Environment and disaster monitoring e.g. climate, forest fire, landslide, ect - Urban monitoring and control e.g. streetlight control, security system, maintenance of equipment - These application require multi-year battery or solar battery operation. - Deal with event notification (sign of disaster, malfunction of equipment, etc) and some control of equipment. Hirohito Nishiyama, Ryoji Ono, Seiichi Hiraoka
Application Requirements Hirohito Nishiyama, Ryoji Ono, Seiichi Hiraoka
Review of Power Saving Technique • ■ Basic Sample Listening (B-MAC, etc) • Procedure • Sender transmits a long preamble before sending data. • Receiver samples channel periodically and receives data when it detects preamble. • Advantages of sample listening • - Power consumption is very small, when not communicate. • - Good response for asynchronous communication such as alarm or • event notification. • This technique are suitable for these applications Hirohito Nishiyama, Ryoji Ono, Seiichi Hiraoka
Proposed features for SUN • (1) Link control feature • (2) Synchronized sample lestening Hirohito Nishiyama, Ryoji Ono, Seiichi Hiraoka
Proposed features - link control ■ Issue of basic sample listening ・ On Monitoring System - The communication of event notification tends to concentrate at the same time. (e.g. a fire, malfunction caused by disaster) - The monitoring system requires more data to investigate in detail, when it detects event notification. (e.g. a malfunction of equipment) ・ But ... - Long preamble consumes large capacity of communication. - Long preamble increases the delay of communication. detection a fire detection a fire detection a fire Hirohito Nishiyama, Ryoji Ono, Seiichi Hiraoka
Proposed features - link control (cont.) ■ Control nodes' mode with "LinkUp" and "LinkDown" command. 1) The source node sends the LinkUp/LinkDown command to destination to inform of start/end of communication. 2) If the receiver receives the LinkUp/LinkDown, it changes the mode to Communication/Sampling. Hirohito Nishiyama, Ryoji Ono, Seiichi Hiraoka
Proposed features - link control (cont.) ■ Use Link information to reduce long preamble frame - Each node keeps the information of the link concerned. - Link information consist of source node, destination node, next-hop node. - If the next hop node is obviously in the communication mode, the sender sends LinkUp command with short preamble. This Function should be implement in network layer Link has already been established Node D to A Node D Node C Node A Node B LinkUp with long preamble LinkUp with short preamble Node E Hirohito Nishiyama, Ryoji Ono, Seiichi Hiraoka
Proposed features - synchonized sample listening ■ Issue of basic sample listening - On FHSS system, FHSS also should be deployed to sample listening feature to ensure the robustness of communication. - Long preamble make the neighbor nodes that are not concerned with communication wasted power. Hirohito Nishiyama, Ryoji Ono, Seiichi Hiraoka
Proposed features - synchonized sample listening (cont.) ■ Synchronized to FHSS, using another channel to FHSS - The node that works in sampling mode hops same timing with FHSS's frequency hopping. - If the hopping pattern for sample listening is different from for data communication, sample listening would not interfere with data communication. ( e.g. Figure shows the node uses next channel to data communication ) Hirohito Nishiyama, Ryoji Ono, Seiichi Hiraoka
Proposed features - synchronized sample listening (cont.) ■ Synchronized sample listening - One or more timeslots create in the requency hopping interval - The length of timeslot is about 20ms to frequency hopping interval. The longer timeslot extend the synchronization interval. - Each node is assigned some timeslots for sampling. - Timeslot assignment depends on system design. (1)one time slot for multiple nodes, (2)multiple time slots for one node. Hirohito Nishiyama, Ryoji Ono, Seiichi Hiraoka
Requirements for PHY 6.2.1 PHY data service Tow types of frame should be supported. 1) The existing frame in current standard. 2) The frame with long preamble. The length of preamble should be defined in PIB. 6.2.2 PHY management service 6.2.2.7 PLME-SET-TRX-STATE.request Four types of transceiver state (mode) should be supported 1) Transceiver disable (TRX_OFF) 2) Transmitter enabled (TX_ON) 3) Receiver enabled (RX_ON) 4) Sampling enabled (SMP_ON) In this mode, sampling should be performed, and only the frame with long preamble should be received. Existing Mode Hirohito Nishiyama, Ryoji Ono, Seiichi Hiraoka
Requirements for PHY 6.8 General radio specifications 6.8.? Channel sampling function definitions 1) Timing for sampling 2) Function of checking preamble pattern It will help to make the transceiver's power off quickly, if it gets noise or signal of data communication. Hirohito Nishiyama, Ryoji Ono, Seiichi Hiraoka
Requirements for MAC sublayer These are specifications for slow-FHSS system. 7.5 MAC functional discription 7.5.? Synchronization - Synchronization for synchronized sample listening use the FHSS mechanism. - Synchronization interval should be defined with consideration of length of timeslot and accuracy of crystal. 7.5.? Channel management - Channel management for synchronized sample listening should be defined in order to avoid interference with the data communication. Hirohito Nishiyama, Ryoji Ono, Seiichi Hiraoka
Conclusion • Reviewed target systems and their requirements. • Referred to basic sample listening method • Proposed two low power features for SUN (1) link control feature (2) Synchronized sample listening • Explained requirements to PHY and MAC Hirohito Nishiyama, Ryoji Ono, Seiichi Hiraoka
