Researching the BLE based intelligent lighting control system

Several leading lighting companies for example NXP and Philips work in a project to explore the next generation intelligent lighting system. One innovation of the project is using a distributed architecture to replace current centralized system to increase robustness and extensibility. As a core component of wireless lighting control system,...

Wi-Fi Direct based Smart Set-up (WDSS) in Lighting Systems

The Wireless Lighting Control System has drawn intensive attention in the recent years due to the potential for huge cost savings as well as increased convenience. Commonly seen Wireless Lighting Control Systems utilize Zigbee, KNX and Z-WAVE; whereas little attention has been given to Wi-Fi because of unsolved limitations. The purpose of this...

Design and Implementation of a Wireless Sensor Network Testbed

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is becoming a more and more popular research area since its emergence. Many WSN researches rely on practical experiments in real wireless networks. However, to setup and conduct such an experiment is always cumbersome and time-consuming. So in this thesis, we design and implement a WSN testbed to solve the problem...
