Resumo(s)
Wireless Sensor Networks(WSN) are networks of devices used to sense and act that
applies wireless radios to communicate. To achieve a successful implementation of a
wireless device it is necessary to take in consideration the existence of a wide variety
of radios available, a large number of communication parameters (payload, duty cycle,
etc.) and environmental conditions that may affect the device’s behaviour. However, to
evaluate a specific radio towards a unique application it might be necessary to conduct
trial experiments, with such a vast amount of devices, communication parameters and
environmental conditions to take into consideration the number of trial cases generated
can be surprisingly high. Thus, making trial experiments to achieve manual validation of
wireless communication technologies becomes unsuitable due to the existence of a high number of trial cases on the field. To overcome this technological issue an automated test methodology was introduced, presenting the possibility to acquire data regarding the device’s behaviour when testing several technologies and parameters that care for a specific analysis. Therefore, this method advances the validation and analysis process of the wireless radios and allows the validation to be done without the need of specific and in depth knowledge about wireless devices.
