BSN Platform
Prof. Guang-Zhong Yang and Benny Lo (Imperial College London)
This tutorial comprises an introduction to Body Sensor Networks covering
the current state-of-the-art in wireless sensor networks and its
significance and future applications to sensing and monitoring devices
for healthcare. It then goes into the major concepts required to program
TinyOS applications, followed by an introduction to the basic
architecture and extensibility of BSN Node for different sensing
environments (both for healthcare applications and general wireless
sensor networks). There will be a hands on session on TinyOS programming
which will illustrate how to build, debug, and run TinyOS applications
on the BSN node, how to send/receive data wirelessly, and a session on
sensor data acquisition with the BSN node. Finally, there will be a
session on wireless data path and sensor message hopping, introducing
the concept and theory of packet broadcasting, how to form wireless
sensor network, and issues related to message hopping. It will also
illustrate a simple multi-hop data propagation method that allows data
to be collected by a central location.
