Wireless Sensor Networks, Active RFID & RTLS (09:00 - 12:10)

09:00 - 09:25 "Wireless RTLS Mesh Networks: No Wires Required"
  • 802.15.4 mesh networks based on time-synchronized, channel hopping protocols such as TSMP or WirelessHART offer carrier-class reliability and network-wide low power, enabling every node to operate for many years on batteries, energy harvesting power sources or line power.
  • Integration of time-of-flight measurement functionality into 802.15.4 chipsets creates a breakthrough opportunity for a "no-wires" mesh network that supports more accurate location measurements than RSSI-based systems
  • Wire-free mesh networks dramatically cut the installation cost of RTLS infrastructure, while offering the ability to simultaneously transmit wireless sensor data, control signals and accurate location information for both static and moving objects.
 
09:25 - 09:50 "RTLS. A Look at How a Real-Time Locating Systems Immediately Enhanced Efficiency and Increased Quality in a Tire Manufacturing Plant"
  • Virtually eliminated down time
  • Immediately enhanced quality control
  • Vastly improved transparency
 
09:50 - 10:15 "European Project WISEBED: Providing a Testbed for Sensor Network Technologies"
  • WISEBED offers a federation of sensor networks in order to provide a large-scale experimental facility.
  • The environment is very flexible: experiments are possible on every layer up to a full flashing of the node
  • WISEBED offers a very convenient environment for users, including authentication, resource reservation, experiment description, and collection of results
 
10:15 - 10:40 "ScenSor: An IEEE802.15.4a Compliant Chip Creates a True Disruption in RTLS and WSN Markets"
  • Bringing Precision indoor location to RTLS (10cm): Line of Sight of 500m, Indoor Line of Sight of > 110m, non Line of Sight of 45m
  • Enabling energy harvesting techniques to be used in sensors
  • Bringing RTLS capability to Wireless Sensors and mesh networking to RTLS
  • Sampling Customers Q3 2010, Mass Production Q3 2011
 
10:40 Coffee & Networking Break
 
11:20 - 11:45 "Active RFID Applications using IEEE 802.15.4"
  • Brief introduction to Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) and the key relevant standards
  • Detailed discussion of how WSN can implement Active RFID functions for tracking and monitoring assets
  • Overview of a number of real Active RFID implementations using IEE802.15.4
  • Summary of the use of WSN for location systems
