SMART DUST
What is Smart Dust?
A tiny dust size device with extra-ordinary
capabilities.
Often called micro electro-mechanical
sensors
Combines sensing, computing, wireless
communication capabilities and autonomous
power supply within volume of only few
millimeters.
Useful in monitoring real world phenomenon
without disturbing the original process.
Cont…
so small and light in weight that they
can remain suspended in the
environment like an ordinary dust
particle.
the air currents can also move them in
the direction of flow.
It is very hard to detect the presence of
the Smart Dust and it is even harder to
get rid of them once deployed.
Smart Dust Mote
Architecture
A single Smart Dust mote has:
a semiconductor laser diode and MEMS beam
steering mirror for active optical transmission
a MEMS corner cube retro-reflector for passive
optical transmission
an optical receiver
a signal processing and control circuitry
a power source based on thick-film batteries and
solar cells.
Components of Smart Dust
Corner Cube Retro-
reflector(CCR)
Comprises of three mutually
perpendicular mirrors of gold-coated
poly-silicon.
Has the property that any incident ray of
light is reflected back to the source
provided that it is incident within a
certain range of angles centered about
the cube’s body diagonal.
CCR cont…
The micro-fabricated CCR includes an
electrostatic actuator that can deflect
one of the mirrors at kilohertz rates.
Thus the external light source can be
transmitted back in the form of
modulated signal at kilobits per second.
Challenges
It is difficult to fit all these devices in a
small Smart Dust both size wise and
Energy wise.
With devices so small, batteries present
a massive addition of weight.
COMMUNICATION
TECHNIQUE
Wireless communication collects data
from thousands of sensors
simultaneously
Various techniques are
a) Radio Frequency Transmission
b) Optical Transmission Technique
Radio Frequency
Transmission
Based on the generation, propagation and
detection of electromagnetic waves with a
frequency range from tens of kHz to
hundreds of GHz.
Multiplexing techniques: time, frequency or
code-division multiplexing.
Their use leads to modulation, band pass
filtering, demodulation circuitry, and additional
circuitry, all of which needs to be considered,
based on power consumption.
Problems with RF comm..
Large size of antenna.
RF communication can only be
achieved by using time, frequency or
code division.
Passive Laser based comm..
Downlink communication (BST to dust)- the
base station points a modulated laser beam
at a node.Dust uses a simple optical receiver
to decode the incoming message
Uplink communication (dust to BST)- the
base station points an un-modulated laser
beam at a node, which in turn modulates and
reflects back the beam to the BST
Limitations
Is a single-hop network topology, where
dust nodes cannot directly
communicate with each other, but only
with a base station.
Communication may suffer from
variable delays if the laser beam is not
already pointing at a node that is
subject to communication with the BST.
Active Laser Based comm..
Has a semiconductor laser, a
collimating lens and a beam-steering
micro-mirror.
Uses an active-steered laser-diode
based transmitter to send a collimated
laser beam to a base station .
Suitable for peer-to-peer comm..,
provided there exist a line of sight path
between the motes.
Fiber Optic comm..
Employs semiconductor laser, fiber
cable and diode receiver to generate,
transfer and detect the optical signal.
Similar to passive optical comm..
Relatively small size of the optical
transceiver is employed with low-power
operation.
CCR employed on each Dust mote to
modulate uplink data to base station.
Advantages
Does not require unbroken line-of-sight and
the link directionality.
Each dust mote does not need to employ
more than one CCR.
Comm.. between dust motes and a base
station can be guaranteed.
It has a longer range of communication link
than that of a free space passive optical
comm..
Limitations
Optical fiber cables restrict the mobility
of dust mote.
Since a base station should employ
several optical components for fiber
connection to each dust mote, it may
complicate base station design.
Bridges
EFFICIENT MEDICAL
IMPLANTS
Conclusion
There are many ongoing researches on Smart
Dust, the main purpose of these researches
is to make Smart Dust mote as small as
possible and to make it available at as low
price as possible. Soon we will see Smart
Dust being used in varied application from
all spans of life.
Thank You!
