A wireless sensor network or WSN has three … A wireless sensor network or WSN has three main components, the sensor node, the access point and a console. These components exist for the purpose of making the WSN function as we want to, collecting sensor values, monitoring shipments or tracking animals. Many articles concern themselves with the topic of energy consumption in sensor nodes or wireless sensor networks, which can be logical because the sensor node is in many cases only powered by a coin cell battery, and that replacement of the battery once deployed can in many scenarios be difficult.
This thesis will include a theoretical part concerning the technology behind a WSN such as the IEEE, the OSI model, Internet Protocol and routing in general. Furthermore, the focus will be on differentiating factors for the energy consumption in the wireless sensor nodes.
The protocols researched are WirelessHart and RPL. WirelessHart seem to be the choice when dealing with industrial wireless sensor networks where the nodes are fixed to a certain point where it is supposed to measure a value. RPL must be more flexible as thought to be applied in many different systems and aspects and the nodes running RPL can be dropped in for example terrain and be expected to form a network.terrain and be expected to form a network. +
