Paper Abstract:
|
It is known that sensor networks play an important role in smart cities. However, urban environment brings many challenges to the operation of these networks because of the coexistence of heterogeneous technologies that create interference among them. It is important to identify the impacts among the standards in order to mitigate the degradation of the wireless sensors performance. At this point, this work aimed to investigate the impacts generated by the IEEE 802.11 standard over the IEEE 802.15.4. For that, through experimentation, we analyzed the factors influencing disposal in Zigbee networks using SUNSPOT sensors. From the results it was possible to evaluate the rate factor accounted for 31% of the cause on the packet loss, noise19%, and the interaction of both factors 21%. The experimental error was 29%. These findings indicate that the factors described in the experiment have significant influence in PER (Packet Error Rate), and suggest further research initiatives in order to ratify the findings. |
