Design and implementation of a long-range low-power wake-up radio and customized DC-MAC protocol for LoRaWAN
In this paper, we present the design and implementation of a long-rage wake-up radio (WuR) and customized duty cycled (DC) MAC protocol for wireless IoT devices. The WuRx achieves a sensivity of −70 dBm by consuming just 0.032 mA, thereby optimizing the energy consumption of battery powered long-range wireless IoT devices. Reducing the power consumption of these devices minimizes the overall costs when deployed in large scale.
Design and implementation of a long-range low-power wake-up radio for IoT devices
In this paper, we present the design and implementation of an on-demand wake-up radio (WuR) for long-range wireless IoT devices to reduce the power consumption, thereby increasing the life time of the devices. A custom narrow-band (NB) low noise amplifier is designed and implemented for WuR. The low-noise amplifier achieves a gain of 31 dB at 1 mA current consumption from a 6 V power supply. The WuR achieves a sensivity of -80 dBm by consuming just 1 mA, thereby optimizing the energy consumption of battery powered long-range IoT devices, hence reducing the power consumption and overall costs when deployed in large scale.
Mixed signal system design (A project based course)
This paper describes an undergraduate 10 ECTS course in the design of analog and digital microelectronic circuits based on a project. This is offered for the students of Electronics engineering in their 3 rd semester of the 6-semester bachelor-programme. The emphasis is given on the mixed signal aspects of the system design. From the project, students get practical experience in the mixed signal system design.
Field Measurements and Parameter Calibrations of Propagation Model for Digital Audio Broadcasting in Norway
During 2017, digital audio broadcasting (DAB) replaces frequency modulation (FM) broadcasting and becomes the only technology for national terrestrial audio broadcasting services in Norway. As Norway is the first country that replaces FM completely with DAB, it is of great importance to measure the signal strength of such a technology in massive deployments and to tune a simulation model as a reference for future studies. Therefore, field measurements of received signal strength are carried out in a typical Norwegian area in this work. Based on the data obtained from the measurements, a simulator with a recent empirical propagation model, namely, ITU-R P.1546-5, has been calibrated. The fin…
