ExScal: Elements of an Extreme Scale Wireless Sensor Network

  • Anish Arora | Ohio State University

Project ExScal fielded a 1000+ node wireless sensor network and a 200+ node peer-to-peer ad hoc network of 802.11 devices in a 1.3km by 300m remote area in Florida, USA during December 2004. In comparison with previous deployments, the ExScal application is relatively complex. In this talk, I overview the key requirements of ExScal, a few elements of its hardware/software platform, networking protocol and application design, and some results of our experiments.
