CoE@UBI
The CoE is organized inside the IML and share human, material and spaces resources. The members of this laboratory are also active members of the IEEE-IES Standardization Committee. This laboratory is contributing to the definition of the IEEE 1451 family of standards, especially promoting IEEEP1451.002 working group activities.
This CoE is focused on the IEEE 1451 standard. Devices, or transducer nodes, with energy restrictions mostly because battery or an energy harvesting mechanism powers the device receive from this CoE special attention.
The CoE can offer an experimental setup, observing different configurations, with the required characteristics to integrate the device under test and evaluate its behaviour.
Procedures
Using the hardware and software tools available from this CoE, an infinite variety of test scenarios can be devised. Some examples of tests are:
- Energetic impact evaluation of the device under test in a simulated operating environment.
- Device under test compatibility with an NCAP to check specific actions such as plug-n-play in the network, compatibility with NCAP.
- Integration in a real operating scenario.
- Parametric evaluation: energy consumption, sleep times, minimum energy levels. Energy consumption for pre-defined tasks,
- Energetic efficiency of the energy harvesting mechanism.
