The paper deals with a new test bench for the assessment of time-related performance of wireless systems implementing the IEEE 802.15.4 with the Chirp Spread Spectrum (CSS) physical layer. The test bench has been designed in order to clearly evaluate the timestamping capabilities of an FPGA-based implementation of the IEEE 802.15.4 CSS. The key features are the full bandwidth capability and the extreme...
An increasing number of distributed measurement and control applications requires that network nodes are able to estimate the position and the time measured by other devices on a common spatio-temporal reference frame. Accurate packet timestamping is a necessary condition to achieve this goal. However, in the case of wireless networks, timestamping accuracy is generally quite poor due to the combination...
The IEEE1588 became in the last years the de-facto solution to obtain a strict synchronization over a local area network. The purpose of the paper is to analyze the uncertainty sources that affect a software-only implementation of the IEEE1588 (the so called PTPd) based on off-the-shelf PC components. A careful analysis of timestamp mechanism and time management in a PC platform with an Operating...
This paper deals with the application of the Chirp Spread Spectrum (CSS) modulation for the synchronization of wireless sensors. Chirp modulation is a well known technique for precise localization, originally developed for RADAR applications. When CSS is used for communication purposes, radio frequency pulses are modulated in order to convey also user data. This approach allows for robustness, thanks...
