Wireless Sensores

Buen Día,
Estoy interesado en trabajar con el Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) Starter Kit (http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/es/nid/206916) y me gustaría saber si alguno ya ha trabajado previamente con el, si da algún tipo de problema y cuanta distancia es posible cubrir desde el punto en donde este el Gateway hasta los módulos Wireless.
Gracias,
Esteban Gonzalez

Hola Esteban;
El rango de distancia que se puede cubrir de los nodos al Gateway es de 300 metros en un ambiente interno y soportan temperaturas de -40 a 70°C. Las baterías duran más de dos años bajo un uso normal!! aunque también puede ser aloimentado con una fuente de corriente directa.
Es posible también ocupar los nodos como ruteadores por lo que un nodo podría estar a 500 metros del gateway si se usa un segundo nodo a 250 m como ruteador ocupando así tus nodos en una mesh o red.
Yo lo usé para un demo de control inalámbrico de un invernadero, para tomar mediciones de temperatura y humedad y abrir y cerrar valvulas, encender lámparas y ventiladores. La programación es bastante sencilla, en esta liga  podras encontrar la información de como se realiza la programación del hardware y del software (100% compatible con LabVIEW).
Si los nodos se usan como tarjeta de adquisición, es decir como receptores y emisores de de información, se pueden correr programas bastante complejos. El único problema que tienen los nodos, es su velocidad de transmisión (se envían las muestras cada segundo para ahorrar batería)  y en caso de que se quiera tener un programa embebido en el nodo, este tiene memoria y recursos de comunicación limitados.
También te paso un ejemplo delo uso de entradas y salidas digitales que encontre en la comunidad.
Si tienes alguna duda o quieres más información por favor avísame
Exito en tu aplicación

  • Drivers for over the air programming for labview in wireless sensor network

    Hi all ,
    In my earlier post, I had requested for information regarding the drivers for Wireless sensor network( WSN) in Labview. I was successfully able to configure my WSN using Labview. thanks to all for the support and help.
    However I have a new querry now. I have developed a WSN testbed with more than 1 mote and more than 1 sensor. all the motes  are spread out and they communicate with the base mote. the base mote is connected to the gateway and the gateway is connected to the PC where labview and moteview are installed.
    Now I need to confure the motes ( ie load a software on the mote which is not connected to the PC) . Is it possible with labview ?
    I mean does labview support this kind of a structure .? Say for ex i have a mote with id = 10 and that mote is one hope away from the base mote ? can i still configure that mote remotely ?
    thanks!

    Hey anilhk,
    When you say "load the software on the mote" do you mean actually reflashing the firmware on the sensor? If so, there is currently no functionality for this in the Crossbow driver. LabVIEW is certainly capable of doing this, but in order to get the functionality, you may have to program it yourself. The Crossbow driver source code is available to view and using the programming documentation from Crossbow you could make modifications to the driver for your own use.

  • Wireless sensor networks and virtual lab

    Hi all
    i am a new to wireless and virtual lab . i would like to build a virtual lab in wireless sensor networks where in all the configurations .. ie hardware conf would be done and across the internet i can shd be accessing the virtual lab and performing operations like . on / off of sensors .. etc
    can any one let me know the steps in which the same can be performed

    Hello ayaym,
    That is a pretty broad description.  You may need to narrow down your questions to be more specific.
    It seems like you are doing 2 things.  One is create a wireless network.  Two is access that network over the internet.
    1.  Wireless, there are numerous commercial wireless technologies.  Wireless ethernet, Wi-Fi, proprietary protocol wireless boxes.  Zigbee, wireless HART, bluetooth.  Etc.......  What makes the most sense would be determined by how these sensors would be connected in a wired world.  Then look at the common factors and whether you can adapt all the devices to a common wireless system.  For instance, if it's ethernet, you could add in wireless ethernet routers.  If it is RS-485 or RS-232 serial protocol, they also make ethernet boxes that would turn these into to remote virtual ports.
    2.  Internet connectivity.  Labview has remote panels and web publishing that would allow remote access to the front panels of running VI's.  It is just a matter of allowing those communications to occur in a secure way.  A Virtual Private Network might be required.  Other remote desktop software tools could work.

  • Wireless sensor and virtual prototype

    Hello All,
    Can anyone help me with this?:
    1. What type of wireless sensor can i place on an object (e.g a door) such that if i move the physical door, i can see it move in the virtual model and in the same direction (eg. x, y, z).
    2. Also, if i move the door in the virtual model, i want the sensor to give a trigger.
    3. I need a sensor network for this. Who has information about any sensor that can help with this?
    Demmy

    Hi Demmy,
    We don't specifically offer any wireless sensors but for your application a 3-axis accelerometer would be appropriate. To make it wireless you could use a WLS-9205 with a 250 kS/s sampling rate or the WLS-9215 with 100kS/s/ch. The 9215 has fewer channels but the higher sampling rate.
    As for the trigger, you will want to set up an analog trigger in software using the DAQmx Trigger VI.
    Hope this helps!

  • Nike + wireless sensor and shoe sensor

    does anyone know how long the battery on the sensor lasts for and when it does run out can you place it or do you have to spend £19.99 for a new Nike + pack.
    whats the best way to maintain the battery on the sensor as well as it doesnt say on the booklet or online.
    thanks runners

    The battery is rated to last about 1,000 hours when the kit is in use. (Most of the time, the kit will be idle, at which time the drain on the battery is negligible.)
    If there will be long periods between your runs (several days or weeks), you can put the sensor to sleep. To do that, following the instructions here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303934#faq10
    The battery is not replaceable, so you'll have to buy a new kit when the current sensor's battery finally dies. But presume you run an hour a day, every day. The means you will get about 2 and half years out of the battery before it dies. At £19.99, the cost to you is only about £0.019 per day! Not a bad little investment!

  • Wireless sensor network

    Is there any algorithm that helps a base station to detect the existence of isolated nodes for a randomly deployed sensors. 

    WSN signal routing is abstracted away from the user. Built on the ZigBee protocol, the WSN network provides message hopping and adaptable routing. In other words, when using the WSN platform, the user does not have control to manually detect nodes as this process is an automated feature.

  • Intrusion Detection System for Wireless Sensor Networks (IDS for WSN)

    Hello, 
    Does anyone know how i can make an IDS for a WSN, using a Labview application or any other available application ? 
    I don't know how to start, analyzing timestamps ? ARP ? 
    Thank you

    Kaoutar,
    If you are only worried about other nodes trying to communicate with your gateway I dont think you should have any issue. In order to communicate between a node and a gateway the node needs to be added to the gateway see step 1 in the following KB http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/88B2957808343185862575EC00120872. So unless you add the node it will not communicate with your gateway. Is this all that you are concerned about? If so I think you should also check out this example.
    Let me know if this is not correct.

  • Obtaining data in real-time from Microstrain wireless orientation sensor 3DM-GX2

    Hello, all.
    I am using
    a wireless inertial sensor 3DM-GX2 with a USB Base Station from
    Microstrain, and I want to read and use data values from it in LabView in real time.
    But the problem is that I am not able to use the LabView examples or
    the SDK provided by Microstrain either.
    Link for SDK is here:
    http://www.microstrain.com/updates/orientation-sdk.zip
    I
    have used the VI called "Read Accel and Ang Rate Serial.vi". I chose
    the correct COM port for my sensor, that is COM3. When I run, I get an error in the node "VISA Read" (code -1073807339). Attached you can see a snapshot of this VI.
    However,
    I don't know if I have to use this VI because my sensor is a wireless
    sensor (USB Base Station linked to 3DM-GX2 inertial sensor) and this
    seems to be a program for reading from a serial sensor.
    You can see in the link: http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=250&thread.id=42319&view=by_date_ascending&page=3; that there is another topic related to this, in which the discussion ended up with the users being able to read from the sensor, but I can't understand what they discussed there about communication protocols. I think I would need basic information so I could fix
    my problem.
    I am using LabView 8.6.
    I hope you can help me. Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Francisco

    Read Accel and Ang Rate Serial.vi Block Diagram.JPG ‏85 KB

    Hi there, I had the same problems with this wireless sensor and the labview Vi's from the microstrain homepage. Please use the newest ones which are available from the microstrain homepage.http://www.microstrain.com/updates/labview-examples.zip  The problem is in the "Read Accel and Ang Rate Wireless.vi". The node adress is missing. The node address are the last two digits of the
    serial number (SN: 4200-1076 - node address=76) and is preset at the factory.
    Here is a picture of the changed program.
     I hope that may help you.

  • Java with sensor networks

    Hi,
    I have recently been given a task to create an interface that should allow simple command input in the CSLU toolkit (http://cslu.cse.ogi.edu/toolkit/) to be interpreted to invoke applications to run on a wireless sensor network base node. I have a TinyOS(open source operating system for sensor networks) application that allow me to program the nodes wireless with various program images. ( TinyOS: Deluge Network Programming)
    The problem I have and that I need help with is that I have to connect the CSLU with the sensor network. Data input from CLSU to the node and the opposite way around sensor data out from the node to be taken in, buffered (may have to be filtered in a later stage) and displayed for the user in a graphical way. I have an application that can dislpay the data for me but again it has to be connected to the java interface.
    I would really appreciate any help! Suggestions on how to set this up, maybe create a java rapper around the TinyOS application that controls the nodes or? Any ideas, please don't hesitate to mail me
    Thanx
    Marie

  • Using 4-20ma Sensor on NI WSN-3202

    I have a vibration switch http://ifmefector.com/ifmus/web/dsfs!VKV021.html that I am trying to get to work in my wireless sensor network. NI only offers a voltage input node (NI WSN-3202), but the sensor is only available in 4-20ma output. The analog output is only 1 wire.
    Is there a way to convert that signal to use voltage and have the WSN read it accordingly?
    Thanks,
    Josh

    Put a precision resistor in the loop and read the voltage across the resistor.  For a 5VDC voltage input, use a 250 ohm resistor.

  • Multiple input by using wireless

    Hi,
    My group members and me are try to develop a project which call wireless data acqusition.
    Our main objective is to take are multiple measurement from substation using sensors and converter it to digital by usind ADC.
    Then transmit it using wireless device which we try to use such as wifi or zigbee. After that receive it from develop Pc's and do some analysis example measure voltage and cureent. Then this VI's can be monitored and control from the remote Pc's.
    I'm manage to do the the remote Pc's application, which I'm applied the web server technique. But my major concern is how to communicate with the routers device. Beside that how to transmit, received input and control the multiple devices from the substation during taking the measurement? 
    Hope to hear from you guys.
    MF Hussin,
    "Knowledge Grow When We Share With Others"

    MF Hussin,
    From what I can understand of your device, there are three
    different interface boards you can use. There is the USB, RS-232(serial) and
    the Ethernet interfaces. Which one of these are you using?
     You can use VISA in
    LabView to communicate through all of them but you can also use TCP to
    communicate with the Ethernet interface. All of these should be available in
    LabVIEW 8.0. There are some good examples about using VISA in the example
    finder under ‘hardware input and output’. Examples on TCP can be found under 'hardware input and output - Networking - TCP and UDP'.
     There are also some good knowledge bases on VISA and communication
    with wireless sensor networks.
     I hope this proves useful to you. Please don't hesitate to post should you have any more problems.

  • Plurality of Sensor - WSN

    Hi everybody.
    I am new to wireless sensor network concepts. When I was studying about sensor tags, I frequently came across "Plurality of Sensor". What is the exact meaning of this term (or) what is the role of "Plurality of Sensor" in WSN?
    Thanks in Advance.

    a plurality of sensor nodes which are deployed at the same distance in a two-dimensional plane and have sensing areas of the same size; and
    an extra sensor node which has a sensing area of a smaller size than the size of the sensor nodes to sense a gap area which is not covered by the sensing areas of the sensor nodes.
    Warm Regards,
    Abhinav
