Low-power Network Protocol for Smart Home Automation System: Experimental Study
Session
Information Systems
Description
In this paper the new Wireless Thread Protocol Standard is introduced and further investigated if Thread is suitable for Smart Home Automation Systems. Some of the issues with Wireless networking technologies compared to Thread are addressed with focus on issues like lack of interoperability, high power requirements, and single point of failure systems. This paper presents a thorough experimental evaluation of the Thread Wireless protocol with the compatible hardware used for home automation. The Thread protocol is based on IEEE 802.15.4 radio standard featuring 2.4 GHz radio connectivity. The paper also describes examples of applications created during study of Thread. This work serves as the first analysis of the Thread protocol in use case implementation with findings that can be comparable with other existing wireless network technologies.
