Progress: IP-Ubiquitous Sensor Network
PracTel Inc, Oct 2011
This report provides the USN-WSN technologies and markets analysis and assessments; it concentrates on the recent developmental trends. The report is useful for service providers, retail operators, vendors, network operators and managers, investors and end users seeking to gain a deeper understanding of USN-WSN-based structures opportunities and barriers.
Brief
This report develops and updates the Practel, Inc project on the Ubiquitous Sensor Network (USN). Particular, it addresses technologies and markets that contribute to such a network design and implementation; including:
- Smart Sensors. Such sensors are creating a basis for the USN development; they can be grouped by thousands of network nodes and can collect various informative data to transmit to a main node or a central controller. Smart Sensors miniaturization, extremely low power consumption and other advanced features led to the successful implementation of USN islands; as well as future regional or even country-wide USN.
- ZigBee-IEEE802.15.4. The industry insiders agree that this technology is leading Smart Sensors connectivity; and ZigBee radios are playing and will continue to play a significant role to advance USN features.
- The analysis of USN goals, its benefits, progress and integration with IP-based technologies.
- The analysis of green technology for USN, including developments in radios with extremely low cycle of transmission, modern batteries that can power a Smart Sensor node for many years; and the development of self-powered technologies that utilize ambient power to support Smart Sensors functioning.
This report also surveys a large group of vendors and their products related to this report subjects.
The report is written for a wide audience of technical and managerial staff involved in the USN technologies support, design and implementation.
