Water Eminence Scrutinizing Scheme Based On Zigbee and Wireless Antenna Expertise - A Study

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is the essential structure of a water eminence monitoring by means of wireless sensor network (WSN) technology. To scrutinize water quality greater than different sites as a synchronized application, an estimable system structural design constituted by spread sensor nodes and a base station is suggested. The nodes and base stations are linked using WSN technology l...

Achieving Directionality and Transmit Diversity via Integrating Beam Pattern Scanning (BPS) Antenna Arrays and OFDM

In this paper, we introduce a novel merger of antenna arrays with scanning beam patterns, and Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) systems. Controlled time varying phase shifts are applied to the antenna array elements mounted at the base station with beam patterns directed toward the desired user. This creates a small beam pattern movement called Beam Pattern Scanning (BPS). In ri...

On correlations between dual-polarized base station antennas

Several diversity techniques employing multiple antennas in the base station have been developed for mobile communication systems. However, the performance of diversity methods strongly depends on the correlation between antenna elements. When multiple co-polarized antennas are used in base station, the practical factor limiting the number of diversity branches is the required antenna separatio...

Signal Correlations and Diversity Gain of Two-Beam Microcell Antenna

The motivation of the present study is to investigate the possibility of using two independently directed antenna beams in a mobile base station to provide diversity gain and reduce fading problems in a microcellular environment. In this paper, the signal correlation of the individual antenna beams is studied, and it is shown that correlation depends on beamwidth, separation angle of the antenn...

Summary of WSN Papers

• Great Duck Island [SMP04]. Szewczyk et al. have used two sensor patches, gateways, base station and satellite WAN link for their experiments. A gateway node interfaces a sensor patch to the base station and consists of a mote with 14dBi high gain yagi antenna (point-to-point, directional). The base station collects the data from the sensor patches in the database and makes the data available ...
