Abstract

CycleNet: Empirical Analysis of 802.15.4 in Mobile Scenarios

by: Navraj Chohan and Camilla Fiorese

Abstract:

We present empirical data of communication between 802.15.4 devices in static and mobile scenarios. We evaluate the body factor between two devices in a cycling environment and show it has a significant impact on communication. Our findings show that RSSI is severly hampered as an indicator of reception quality and that LQI serves as a much more reliable indicator in a mobile setting. Additionally, we show that different bicycling speeds do not adversely affect 802.15.4 communication.
